  • The Metaphors of Identity
    1 Sacred Lambencies and Thin Crusts: The Metaphors of Identity ...They went to the window. The fronting heavens were a black purple. The thunder, which had been growling in the distance, swept forward and roared above the town. The crash no longer roared afar, but cracked close to the ear, hard, crepitant. Quick lightning stabbed the world in vicious and repeated hate. A blue-black moistness lay heavy on the cowering earth. George Douglas Brown, The House with the Green Shutters, 1901¹ If a city hasn’t been used by an artist not even the inhabitants live there imaginatively. Alasdair Gray, Lanark, 1982² INATURAMALIGNA The Atlantic coast was appreciated for the qualities of light and landscape—the soft days of the Irish west, the clarity of Cornwall, the Welsh picturesque at Betws- y-Coed—but Victorian fictionalists encountered a Scotland which seemed irredeem- ably dour: bleakness of moorland, withered grasses, stunted trees, flailed by a merciless wind; towns and villages slattern and sullen; great cities truly hellish chasms of filthy streets and pandemonian crowds. ‘Land of the mountain and the flood’ char- acterizes some of this. The ‘Bonnie Briar Bush’ of the Kailyarder Ian MacLaren waves outside the window of a talented boy dying of tuberculosis.

  • 'Twin Loyalties': John Buchan's England David Goldie John
    ‘Twin Loyalties’: John Buchan’s England David Goldie John Buchan’s contributions to Scottish culture are well known and have been widely celebrated. In his multifarious roles of poet, anthologist, novelist, journalist, businessman, committee-man and politician, he saw to it that Scotland maintained, and was seen to have maintained, a distinctive cultural identity. His historical fiction and biography were reminders of Scotland’s distinctive past, as was his active membership of Scottish historical, antiquarian and literary societies and his editorship of the Scottish Review. His Scottish novels offered explorations of particular aspects of the national psyche, while his work in poetry – in his own writing and in an anthology like The Northern Muse – showed his commitment to the Scots language and its traditions. It is hardly surprising, then, that he has been considered an important figure in the foundation of the Scottish literary revival of the inter-war years and that Hugh MacDiarmid, the movement’s godfather hailed him as ‘the Dean of the Faculty of Contemporary Scottish Letters’. 1 But to characterise him as a Scottish writer is to tell only half – perhaps less than half – the story. For Buchan was also deeply concerned with the larger national and international contexts in which his life was lived. Buchan’s Scottish birth and upbringing were foundational to his thinking, and would always remain central to his concerns, but he chose to live most of his life outside Scotland and engage with the wider culture and politics of Britain and its empire. In most practical senses this involved a long-term 1 Hugh MacDiarmid, Contemporary Scottish Studies, ed.

    JOHN BUCHAN’S UNCOLLECTED JOURNALISM A CRITICAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION ROGER JOHN CLARKE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts, Creative Industries and Education University of the West of England, Bristol January 2015 This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement JOHN BUCHAN’S UNCOLLECTED JOURNALISM A CRITICAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION THESIS ABSTRACT John Buchan (1875-1940) has a literary reputation as a minor novelist, based mainly on his success as a popular fiction writer, the inventor of the spy thriller in his best-known novel, The Thirty-Nine Steps (1915). Although there has been considerably increased scholarly interest in his work in recent years, the perception that he is mainly a genre writer persists and has limited the success of attempts to move his literary reputation towards the academic mainstream. Other areas of his writing have received some recognition, but his uncollected journalism has remained a neglected aspect of his work, largely overlooked even by Buchan specialists. This thesis brings an academic focus to Buchan’s uncollected journalism for the first time. It breaks new ground by examining the style, structure, and content of his articles and reviews, and argues that Buchan should be considered as an essayist of elegance and authority, an astute literary critic attuned to contemporary trends, and a wide-ranging cultural commentator on his times. The thesis shows that Buchan’s uncollected journalism, in its volume and range, provides a major field for the additional research which is clearly required if Buchan’s literary reputation is to be further enhanced.

Maurice Lindsay A Century of Scottish Creative Writing Three Essays Scottish Fiction 1900-2000 Scottish fiction was dominated throughout most of the nineteenth century by the gigantic genius of Sir Walter Scott, who revived and spread an interest in Scotland's past, just as Robert Bums had revived an interest and awareness of the Scots tongue a generation or so before. By the beginning of the twenti­ eth century, however, the novel of social concern had been cultivated for some years by Scottish writers. But there was a carry-over of the Scott tradition early in the century by two novelists, Neil Munro (1884-1930) and John Buchan, Baron Tweedsmuir (1875-1940). Inverary-born Munro published his best-loved novels in the first decade of the twentieth century. Doom Castle came out in 1901, followed by the various collections of short stories that won him popular fame, The Vital Spark (1906), The Daft Days (1907), and Ayrshire Idylls (1912).

  • Metamorphoses of the Covenanters in Scottish Historical Fiction
    University of Bucharest Review Vol. XII, no. 2, 2010 Cristian Ştefan Vîjea University of Bucharest METAMORPHOSES OF THE COVENANTERS IN SCOTTISH HISTORICAL FICTION Keywords: stereotypes, discourse, radicalism, postmodern revisiting, contextual factors, inter- textuality, tropes, power relations. Abstract: In this paper I will focus on fictional representations of the Scottish Covenanters and I will highlight a few important differences in the way their image is constructed by postmodern novelists, like Harry Tait and James Robertson. The Scottish Covenanters were staunch defenders of Presbyterianism and upholders of the National Covenant of 1638 or the Solemn League and Covenant of 1643 signed between Scotland and England, which purported to establish and protect Presbyterianism. The following novels will be referred to: Old Mortality, by Walter Scott, Witch Wood, by John Buchan, The Ballad of Sawney Bain, by Harry Tait, and The Fanatic, by James Robertson. I will pass the fictional Covenanters’ discourse through the filter of Hayden White’s theory of the tropes. The Covenanters construct a radical discourse, and, in some novels, they seem to be taken over by it. I will point out some salient differences in the way the fictional Covenanters and their enemies construct their discourse and stereotypes, and also some changes in the representation of the Covenanters’ enemies. For example, the image of Montrose and Claverhouse varies, from Walter Scott and John Buchan to the more recent writers. For Buchan, James Graham is a model conservative, exponent of a balanced Christianity, while in Tait’s novel he is just another fanatic with a different creed, driven by his own master narrative.
