English 67.2   Culture and Society in Modern Scottish Fiction

The course will cover the period from the early 20th century to the present day. It will focus on Scotland’s historically complex national and cultural identity, and consider such themes as religion and morality, class and gender, industrialization, and rural and urban life in the Scottish Highland and Lowlands. The Irish contribution to modern literature has been universally acknowledged. The modern Scottish literary tradition now merits equally close attention. Course Group III. Concentration area tags Genre-narrative, National Traditions and Countertraditions, Cultural Studies and Popular Culture.
