Extractions: University of St Andrews School of English Honours Modules EN3055 and EN3056 Background to Scottish Literature 1. Geography The four main areas of Scotland are: 1. The Southern Uplands (The Borders) - mainly hill country, much rough moorland. Sheep grazing, textile industry. 2. The Central Lowlands - fertile farmland, grain crops; coal deposits; main centres of population. Heavy industries, now replaced by electronics. 3. The Highlands - mountains, forests, lochs and rivers; now sparsely populated. Cattle-rearing; tourism. 4. The Islands - from south-west to far north, large and small. Fishing, small farming. Until about 250 years ago, it was easier to sail round the Highlands than travel through them, and as easy to sail to Ireland or Norway as to walk or ride to England. 2. Languages 1. Gaelic - a Celtic language closely related to Irish Gaelic, from which it developed. Indeed, up to the seventeenth century the Gaelic part of Scotland was essentially part of the same culture and language area as Ireland. At its peak around the ninth century Gaelic was the language of most of mainland Scotland and the Western Isles, and well into last century was still spoken throughout the Highlands, but has now shrunk to about 80,000 native speakers, the largest group living in Glasgow (there are still some Gaelic speakers in eastern Canada). There has been a revival of interest recently, with more teaching and learning Gaelic, and more government funding for Gaelic television. 2. Scots - a development of a northern form of Old English which by the fifteenth century had become a distinct language, used by the court and throughout the Lowlands and southern Scotland. Though it remains the common speech of many Scots, from the sixteenth century onwards it began to be replaced by English in government, religion, education and literature. In the eighteenth century, however, its use in verse was revived (by Ramsay, Fergusson and Burns), and again in the 1920s (by Hugh MacDiarmid), and recently the literary use of urban Scots has become significant (Leonard, Kelman, Welsh).

Extractions: About this site Welcome to Rob Roy on the Web, a guide and directory to resources on the Scottish hero Robert "Roy" MacGregor (1671-1734) and his image in literature and film. Guide to this site: In the History section you will find biographies of RobRoy and essays on his time. In the Movie section you will find reviews, analyses and fan sites relating to the 1995 movie starring Liam Neeson, Jessica Lange and Tim Roth. In the Sir Walter Scott section you will find etexts of and essays relating to his 1817 historical novel. From my perspective, the most interesting sites grapple with how historical writing and imaginative reconstructions have come to reflect something other simply history and fiction. I have done my best to find as many such sites as possible. Site additions, corrections and comments should be addressed to editor@isidore-of-seville.com Thank you, Tim Spalding Presented in Association with Amazon If you enjoy this site you may also like these other sites by me: Duels and Dueling on the Web .

Extractions: A t one time they had told me in the hospital, plastic surgery could eventually work wonders. I did not like the word 'eventually.' Civilly I had requested that they terminate my breath, but they merely pointed out how lucky I was to be given the opportunity. Suspecting they would only transform me into a different kind of monster I had left them studying diagrams. That happened a long time ago, but I still had my dreams of strolling along an avenue of trees holding up a perfect profile to the sun. The Literary Review: An International Journal of Contemporary Writing has been published quarterly by Fairleigh Dickinson University since 1957. Its many special issues have introduced new fiction, poetry, and essays from many nations, regions, or languages to English readers. Issues focus on such topics as contemporary fiction in Portugese, Iranian exiles, new Irish writing, North African authors, and Philippine fiction and poetry. Works from issues devoted to writing in English have won awards and been reprinted in many collections.
