PS-Introduction to Cultural Studies: Scotland today
Cordula Lemke
Kommentar
Today, images of Scottishness are strongly influenced by the myths of the Scottish nation that were created at the end of the eighteenth century. Novels still feature romantic Highlands, witches and ghosts and a celebration of what was later termed working-class lad culture. Yet today’s appropriations of these myths mostly come with a twist. In this seminar we will look at how myths of Scottishness are deployed and where they take readers in a context of accelerated globalisation after a failed Scottish independence referendum and after Brexit.
