Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Dramatic Sketches: Founded on the Pastoral Poetry of Scotland It may perhaps be asked, what particular claims the Author has to be credited on this point, and what induced him to give these Sketches to the world? To the country he owes his birth; there he spent all the bright years of infancy, boyhood, and early youth among ru ral scenes and rural manners, the capacities of his heart were first called into action; and in the country it was, that while listening to the Words of experience, virtue, and religion, from the lips of manya sage and manly peasant, his mind acquired what must continue to be its own peculiar modification of character.

Download or read book Edinburgh History of Scottish Literature Enlightenment Britain and Empire 1707 1918 written by Ian Brown and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-13 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1707 and 1918, Scotland underwent arguably the most dramatic upheavals in its political, economic and social history. The Union with England, industrialisation and Scotland's subsequent defining contributions throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to the culture of Britain and Empire are reflected in the transformative energies of Scottish literature and literary institutions in the period. New genres, new concerns and whole new areas of interest opened under the creative scrutiny of sceptical minds. This second volume of the History reveals the major contribution made by Scottish writers and Scottish writing to the shape of modernity in Britain, Europe and the world.
