Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sidney Goodsir Smith has still to achieve full recognition as the inventive, witty and rumbustious poet and writer he was. He is best known for his poetry in Scots, for tenderly sensual love lyrics, and his play The Wallace, precursor perhaps to Braveheart - and more historically accurate. He is a poet of his beloved city, Edinburgh, celebrating its unique atmosphere and vitality as well as its more seamy undersides with characteristic humanity and rollicking humour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marshall Walker's lively and readable account of the highs and lows of Scottish literature from this important date to the present addresses the important themes of democracy, power and nationhood. Disposing of stereotypical ideas about Scotland and the Scots, this fresh approach to Scottish literature provides a critical interpretation of its distinctive style and presents the reader with an informative introduction to Scottish culture. Coverage includes the Scottish enlightenment and the world of Boswell and David Hulme to the 'Scottish Renaissance', associated with Hugh MacDiarmaid. Developments in the contemporary literary scene include John McGrath's theatre Company and the fiction and poetry of Alaistar Gray and Ian Crichton Smith. Particular attention is given to the work of Scottish women writers such as Lady Grizel Baillie and Liz Lochhead, who have been much neglected in previous literature.
