This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

  • Iain Crichton Smith Essays
    fi(tut j ttud\ by ll^i Strulh PhQlttgTjpttH lain Crichton Smith is one of the most celebrated and challenging writers in contemporary British literature. A poet, novelist and dramatist in both English and Gaelic, he is also a distinguished critic whose essays have a wide circle of admirers. Now published together for the first time, his essays enable us to see the range of his interests and concerns. As a Gaelic speaker Smith is intensely aware of the recession in his native language and of the threat to that culture's well-being. Nowhere is that concern more coherently expressed than in his previously unpublished autobiographical essay 'Real People in a Real Place* which opens this collection. The poetry of his fellow Scots poet Hugh MacDiarmid is another abiding interest, one which he explores with great felicity and feeling. Other poets whose work interests him arid about whom he has written with grace and intelligence are George Bruce and Robert Garioch. Above all it is poetry and the matter of poetry that commands his interest and it is that intellectual concern which dominates this fascinating collection.
