Inhoud:

Is Walter Scott to blame for the limitations of modern Scotland? In Possible Scotlands, Caroline McCracken-Flesher argues that Scott used his position as popular author to negotiate a national identity for his homeland. The variety of Scott's tales suggest not a Scotland receding into the past, but one energetically alive in the past and future of its telling.
