A Parliament of Novels : the Politics of Scottish Fiction 1979-1999 David LEISHMAN Université de Grenoble 3 The Scottish literary scene enjoyed so great a resurgence at the end of the 20th century that the period has sometimes been termed the second Scottish renaissance.1 After a period of relative moroseness, initially exacerbated by the 1979 referendum result,2 Scottish fiction found a new vitality which can be charted by a number of factors: the strong growth in the number of new novels published;3 the linguistic, narratological and typographic experimentation of authors such as Alasdair Gray, James Kelman or Janice Galloway; the increased critical interest in Scottish letters; the commercial success of authors such as Ian Rankin or Irvine Welsh, who, despite their international popularity, remain distinctively Scottish in terms of orientation or voice.

  • Tom Leonard (1944 -2018) — 'Notes Personal' in Response to His Life
    Tom Leonard (1944 -2018) — ‘Notes Personal’ in Response to his Life and Work an essay by Jim Ferguson 1. How I met the human being named ‘Tom Leonard’ I was ill with epilepsy and post-traumatic stress disorder. It was early in 1986. I was living in a flat on Causeyside Street, Paisley, with my then partner. We were both in our mid-twenties and our relationship was happy and loving. We were rather bookish with quite a strong sense of Scottish and Irish working class identity and an interest in socialism, social justice. I think we both held the certainty that the world could be changed for the better in myriad ways, I know I did and I think my partner did too. You feel as if you share these basic things, a similar basic outlook, and this is probably why you want to live in a little tenement flat with one human being rather than any other. We were not career minded and our interest in money only stretched so far as having enough to live on and make ends meet. Due to my ill health I wasn’t getting out much and rarely ventured far from the flat, though I was working on ‘getting better’. In these circumstances I found myself filling my afternoons writing stories and poems. I had a little manual portable typewriter and would sit at a table and type away. I was a very poor typist which made poetry much more appealing and enjoyable because it could be done in fewer words with a lot less tipp-ex.

  • Jackie Kay, CBE, Poet Laureate of Scotland 175Th Anniversary Honorees the Makar’S Medal
    Jackie Kay, CBE, Poet Laureate of Scotland 175th Anniversary Honorees The Makar’s Medal The Chicago Scots have created a new award, the Makar’s Medal, to commemorate their 175th anniversary as the oldest nonprofit in Illinois. The Makar’s Medal will be awarded every five years to the seated Scots Makar – the poet laureate of Scotland. The inaugural recipient of the Makar’s Medal is Jackie Kay, a critically acclaimed poet, playwright and novelist. Jackie was appointed the third Scots Makar in March 2016. She is considered a poet of the people and the literary figure reframing Scottishness today. Photo by Mary McCartney Jackie was born in Edinburgh in 1961 to a Scottish mother and Nigerian father. She was adopted as a baby by a white Scottish couple, Helen and John Kay who also adopted her brother two years earlier and grew up in a suburb of Glasgow. Her memoir, Red Dust Road published in 2010 was awarded the prestigious Scottish Book of the Year, the London Book Award, and was shortlisted for the Jr. Ackerley prize. It was also one of 20 books to be selected for World Book Night in 2013. Her first collection of poetry The Adoption Papers won the Forward prize, a Saltire prize and a Scottish Arts Council prize. Another early poetry collection Fiere was shortlisted for the Costa award and her novel Trumpet won the Guardian Fiction Award and was shortlisted for the Impac award. Jackie was awarded a CBE in 2019, and made a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 2002.

  • The Characters' Response to Social Structures in Alasdair Gray's Lanark
    Compliance Versus Defiance: The Characters’ Response to Social Structures in Alasdair Gray’s Lanark and 1982 Janine Markéta Gregorová Palacký University, Olomouc, Czech Republic Abstract The article focuses on two novels by Alasdair Gray, Lanark: A Life in Four Books (1981) and 1982 Janine (1984), in particular on the ways in which the characters are influenced by externally imposed social structures and the attitudes they assume in dealing with them. The adverse workings of official institutions, such as education and employment facilities, are received with compliance on the part of the protagonist in 1982 Janine but meet with resistance from both of the two mirror protagonists in Lanark. In the context of the standing of Scotland within the United Kingdom, institutions represent the interests of the powerful English majority rather than the dependent Scottish minority, and therefore any act of rebellion against them is charged with a subversive potential. Besides the political implications, the article explores the social dimensions of the novels and illustrates by means of individual examples the means used by the powerful to exploit the powerless, as well as the strategies the latter employ to defend themselves. Keywords Alasdair Gray; Lanark; 1982 Janine; politics in literature; sexuality; twentieth-century Scottish literature When Alasdair Gray was asked by an interviewer whether the concern with monstrous institutions recurrent in his writing is a “kind of obstreperousness” springing from “a genetic perturbation” of the author, he replied: My approach to institutional dogma and criteria—let’s call it my approach to institutions—reflects their approach to me. Nations, cities, schools, marketing companies, hospitals, police forces have been made by people for the good of people.

  • D:\Atlantis\Artículos Para Publicar 26.1\Editado Por Ricardo Y Por Mí
    ATLANTIS 26.1 (June 2004): 101–110 ISSN 0210-6124 An Interview with Liz Lochhead Carla Rodríguez González Universidad de Oviedo [email protected] An essential reference in contemporary Scottish literature, Liz Lochhead has consolidated her career as a poet, playwright and performer since she began publishing in the 1970s. Born in Motherwell, Lanarkshire, in 1947, she went to Glasgow School of Art where she started writing. After some eight years teaching art in Glasgow and Bristol, she travelled to Canada (1978) with a Scottish Writers Exchange Fellowship and became a professional writer. Memo for Spring (1971), her first collection of poems, won a Scottish Arts Council Book Award and inaugurated both a prolific career and the path many other Scottish women writers would follow afterwards. As a participant in several workshops—Stephen Mulrine’s, Philip Hobsbaum’s and Tom McGrath’s—where other contemporary writers like Alasdair Gray, Tom Leonard or James Kelman also collaborated, Lochhead began to create a prestigious space of her own within a markedly masculine canon. Her works have been associated with the birth of a female voice in Scottish literature and both her texts and performances have had general success in Britain and abroad. Her plays include Blood and Ice (1982), Mary Queen of Scots Got Her Head Chopped Off (1989), Perfect Days (1998), and adaptations like Molière’s Tartuffe (1985) and Miseryguts (The Misanthrope) (2002), Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1989), Euripides’ Medea (2000), which won the 2001 Saltire Scottish Book of the Year Award, Chekhov’s Three Sisters (2000) and Euripides and Sophocles’ lives of Oedipus, Jokasta and Antigone in Thebans (2003).

Alexander Scott Scottish Poetry 1974-1976 For poetry in English, the major event of the period, in 1974, was the publication by Secker and Warburg, London, of the Com­ plete Poems of Andrew Young (1885-1971), arranged and intro­ duced by Leonard Clark. Although Young had lived in England since the end of the First World War, and had so identified himself with that country as to exchange his Presbyterian min­ istry for the Anglican priesthood in 1939, his links with Scotland where he was born (in Elgin) and educated (in Edin­ burg) were never broken, and he retained "the habit of mind that created Scottish philosophy, obsessed with problems of perception, with interaction between the 'I' and the 'Thou' and the 'I' and the 'It,."l Often, too, that "it" was derived from his loving observation of the Scottish landscape, to which he never tired of returning. Scarcely aware of any of this, Mr. Clark's introduction places Young in the English (or Anglo-American) tradition, in "the field company of John Clare, Robert Frost, Thomas Hardy, Edward Thomas and Edmund Blunden ••• Tennyson and Browning may have been greater influences." Such a comment overlooks one of the most distinctive qualities of Young's nature poetry, the metaphysical wit that has affinities with those seven­ teenth-century poets whose cast of mind was inevitably moulded by their religion.

  • French Theatre Translated Into Scots
    French Theatre Translated into Scots Derrick McCLURE (Senior lecturer, Aberdeen University) The development of Scots as a literary language is extensive, and the corpus of literary works in Scots includes some writings which can rank among the finest in European literature: Scotland, indeed, has produced far more than a small country’s fair share of poets and prose-writers of outstanding quality. An essential fact regarding the Scots tongue, however, and one which has if anything added to rather than detracted from its potential for literary expression, is that it has never had a standard canonical form. In the late-mediaeval and Renaissance period, by some estimates the era in which it reached its highest literary development, it was no more standardised in orthography or grammar than any other European language; and if the possibility ever existed of its developing an independent canonical form as Irish and Italian had done and as English, French and other vernaculars were eventually to do – a question which, though unreal in the sense that it can never be verified, arouses passionate and unending debate in Scotland – it certainly was never realised. But though English, standardised on the basis of the London dialect, came to usurp the position of a canonical written form in Scotland as well as England, Scots (still, of course, the normal medium of spoken communication among all classes in non-Gaelic Scotland) continued vigorously in being as a literary vehicle: or more accurately, after a bleak period in the seventeenth century in which it suffered a partial eclipse, it was revived in the early eighteenth by the deliberate and determined efforts of such poets and anthologists as James Watson, William Hamilton and above all Allan Ramsay, and re-instated as a medium first and always primarily for poetry, but soon afterwards also for prose in the special branch of dialogue in novels and stories.
