INTRODUCTION This collection of prose and poetry by living Scottish authors is designed neither as an omnibus nor as a dairy. It does not offer a place to everyone, and it is not a de- liberate skimming of the cream. In making the selection I felt nb desire to be fair and inclusive ; and I have not been dominated by a critical anxiety to show my chosen authors at the tallest and most immaculate flowering of their several talents. My purpose was rather to make an attractive and, I hope, expository array of contemporary writing, and mj method has been to rely on the arbitrary taste of an indifferent memory. I began, that, is, with the reflection on my mind ofa landscape, sufficiently coloured and showing the proper variety of scene to make a Uterary portrait of Scotland, and then cast about in my memory for passages in the work of the authors whose prose and poetry had, in the ordinary course of my reading, helped to create that landscape. I filled my imagined map with what I thought would suit it. Some very respectable features of the landscape have been deUberately omitted. I decided to exclude books and authors whose primary intention was informative or critical, though the decision to do so deprived the anthol- ogy of much that would have enhanced its value, and in the few instances where I have broken this rule I have done so for a specific but arbitrary reason. Fraser Darling, for example, is a scientific and therefore informative writer, but I have included his description of the Atlantic Seal because seals are a relevant detail in the Scottish landscape, and I have always regarded them with interest and affection. A Father of Socialism, again, is critical and instructive writing, but I remembered it for the sheer xi INTRODUCTION Gray's pleasure it had given me ; it is Sir Alexander unusual gift to write of political and economic matters with such grace and wit as few authors command whose only purpose is entertainment. But though I have avoided instructional works, and restricted my choice—or nearly so—to writers who are primarily imaginative, my plan required that I should take from their books what would illustrate the Scottish scene and temperament ; or to be modest, my view of them. There are rural pictures by John Allan and Edwin Muir to set beside the urban scenes by Edwin Muir and George Blake ; and there is a chapter from Compton Mackenzie's immense novel. The Four Winds of Love, that I chose dehberately in preference to many passages of a more purely Uterary interest because it tells a good deal about the ideas implicit in Scottish Nationalism and about the sort of people one may hear discussing it. In Upjrom the Sea there is something of Highland Scotland, unspoiled by the vulgar world and Hghted by the translucent sky of Neil Gunn's cosmography ; and in Stone Walls and Across the Chindwin there are other provinces, very turbulently full of the world, where Scots revive their long history of war. I have not, it will be observed, confined my choice of scenery to native heath nor borrowed only from authors who stiU pay taxes on their own soil. To have done that would have been to show an imperfect and most mis- leading view ; for the tale of Scotland is no more to be told between Carter Bar and the Pentland Firth than the history ofJewry between Dan and Beersheba. The true parties to the Caledonian antisyzygy—Mr MacDiarmid's impressive word—may be, indeed, not Highlanders and Lowlanders, not Jacobitish romantics and hard-headed Whigs, but forth-faring Scots and home-keeping Scots. A remarkable sentiment for their own country dominates xii INTRODUCTION the latter, a vigorous preference for far places appears to inspire the former—but blood is thicker than the estrang- ing seas, and on two noisy nights of the year in a hundred towns from Auckland to Seattle there are many thousands of otherwise orthodox and disciplined citizens who, in a vast emotional confession, proclaim the breeding that environment, often happily, occludes. I cannot think it likely, I admit, that Norman Douglas makes a habit of attending Burns Suppers, but even against a Mediter- ranean background the ancestral bone shows clearly in his countenance and work. Even the English climate, in some ways a more subtle menace than Capri, does not often quite obscure a Scottish origin, at least not for a generation or two ; and if in his sentimental consciousness a Scot may continue so in the pervasive airs of Hampstead and Nottingham and Bournemouth, then the confmes of Scotland are assuredly not Umited by geography. The aggressive out-and-out Scottishness of the poets in this anthology who, as the disciples of Hugh MacDiarmid, write in the Lallans dialect, is a recent development in our history ; for though there has been much physical combat between Scots and English, Scottish writers have not, until lately, shown hostility to the English language. Such redoubtable figures, indeed, as John Kiiox and David Hume assiduously cultivated its style and idiom, and neither Smollett nor Sir Walter Scott, Carlyle nor Stevenson, doubted their Hberty to use Enghsh as their own.

  • Trish Reid, Theatre & Scotland (Houndmills
    Ian Brown, editor, The Edinburgh Companion to Scottish Drama (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2011); Trish Reid, Theatre & Scotland (Houndmills: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013) Alan Riach What might be described as the conventional wisdom about Scottish drama is summed up in the first two sentences of chapter 10 of Marshall Walker’s book, Scottish Literature since 1707 (1996): ‘There is no paucity of Scottish theatrical heritage, but there is a shortage of durable Scottish plays. Drama is the genre in which Scottish writers have shown least distinction.’ It is a judgement that has been perpetuated over generations but only relatively recently has the necessary scholarship and engagement been advanced, by both academics and theatre practitioners, to interrogate the assumptions that lie behind it. Walker refers to ‘the circumstances of theatrical history’ and questions of suppression and censorship, the Reformation, the removal of the court to London in 1603, the Licensing Act of 1737, and concludes his introduction to the chapter by saying that despite familiar references to Allan Ramsay, John Home, Joanna Baillie, and the vitality of folk, music-hall and variety theatre, nothing much happens between Sir David Lyndsay in the sixteenth century and the ‘return’ of Scottish drama in the twentieth century. Most of his chapter then goes on to discuss incisively and refreshingly the achievements of J.M. Barrie, James Bridie and John McGrath but the context he sketches out is barren. As a summary, there is some brutal truth in this, but as an appraisal of the whole complex story, there is much more to be said, and much more has been discovered and made public in the decades since Walker’s book appeared.
