Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. P/b 249 pages, plus fold out family tree. Condition is very good. Introduction by Hugh MacDiarmid to Vol. I If the great debate on the Government's White Paper on devolution* for Scotland and Wales has achieved, anything, it has certainly thrown into high relief the inability of Westminster M.P.'s, irrespective of party, to realise that Scotland is a very different country from England, and has its own history, its own native languages, and its literature in these; but since the union of the parliaments this has been generally played down and, while English schools and colleges have conceded no part in their curricula to Scottish subjects, in Scotland, itself our schools and colleges have given a virtual monopoly to English language, literature and history, paying little or no attention at all to the very different - and, indeed, quite incompatible - Scottish counterparts of these subjects. The great upsurge of interest in Scottish literature and our native languages in the past half-century began about 1920, .when Scots who had served abroad during the First World War returned to Scotland on demobilisation, and found that, while they had been fighting ostensibly for "poor little Belgium'' and the "self-determination of small nations", they knew little or nothing about their own small country - and they set to, many of them, to remedy that deficiency. A very remarkable result has ensued. A great deal has been made about the escalation of the Scottish National Party, but little note has been taken of a much more remarkable phenomenon.

For upwards of two and a half centuries Scottish literature has been treated as a relatively unimportant sub-division of English literature, and Scottish history has been dealt with in terms of English constitutionalism. Suddenly, within the past decade or so, all that has been changed.
