Wer kennt sie nicht, die vielen Vorurteile gegenüber Schottland und seinen Bewohnern - Schotten seien geizig, das Essen schmecke nicht, es regne immer und die Landschaft sei sehr grau. Dieses Buch, das ganz bewusst kein herkömmlicher Reiseführer sein will, räumt mit vielen dieser Ressentiments auf. In liebevoll ausgearbeiteten Texten gibt Hans-Walter Arends einen Überblick über schottische Mythen, Fakten und Klischees und einen tiefgehenden Einblick in die verschiedenen Regionen Schottlands und die turbulente Geschichte dieses faszinierenden Landes - von seinen prähistorischen Ursprüngen über die Stewarts und Jakobitenaufstände bis hin zu spannenden politischen Entwicklungen im Schottland unserer Tage wie dem 2014 Referendum. Dabei wird schnell klar, dass die Schotten eine ganz eigene, sehr interessante Kultur haben - deren Hauptmerkmal es ist, anders zu sein als der Rest der Welt und besonders die englischen Nachbarn. Dieses Buch ist ein Muss für Schottland-Interessierte und eignet sich besonders gut zur Vor- und Nachbereitung von Reisen in dieses wunderschöne Land!

The lovely land of hills, moors and beaches is bounded by the Atlantic and the Solway. Steeped in history and legend, still unspoiled, it is a land whose peace and grandeur are at least comparable to the Highlands, and yet it is hardly known. No area of Scotland better repays exploration than this. From the Auld Kirk of Alloway where tales of Tam O'Shanter resound, to the legends of St Ninian at one of Scotland's earliest Christian sites, Whithorn, this region is lovingly described by a local author, who will explore with you the splendour of Culzean Castle and delights of Wanlockhead, Scotland's highest village.

We live in a time of crises in a state with no moral purpose. This generation could become great by tackling Scotland's domestic problems, and the wider issues facing the world.

ALEX BELL Former Head of Policy to First Minister Alex Salmond, Alex Bell puts Scotland's future in a global context and sets out a way for Scotland and the UK to reform. This is a manifesto for the future free of party lines or the usual orthodoxies - if you read only one book on the referendum, make it this one.

Much more than transgressional entertainment, Irvine Welsh's book Trainspotting and its derivatives is a window into the social mayhem that was everyday life in one of the most deprived areas in 1980s Britain. Thatcherism. Greed. Poverty. Heroin. HIV. Disenfranchised youth. In the back garden of posh, prosperous Edinburgh, Leith had the lot.For 20 years, Bell has interpreted Trainspotting on the streets of Leith for locals, tourists, aficionados and academics. In this book, a critical analysis of Trainspotting – the book, the play, and the film – he splices well-researched erudition with street-level wisdom and lived-experience testimony to tell the story behind the story.This new edition refocuses Trainspotting as a creative chronicle of the early years of the ongoing and uniquely Scottish drug death culture.

Forma i typ

George Orwell left post-war London for Barnhill, a remote farmhouse on the Isle of Jura, to write what became Nineteen Eighty-Four. He was driven by a passionate desire to undermine the enemies of democracy and make plain the dangers of dictatorship, surveillance, doublethink and censorship. Typing away in his damp bedroom overlooking the garden he curated and the sea beyond, he invented Big Brother, Thought Police, Newspeak and Room 101 – and created a masterpiece. Barnhill tells the dramatic story of this crucial period of Orwell's life. Deeply researched, it reveals the private man behind the celebrated public figure – his turbulent love life, his devotion to his baby son and his declining health as he struggled to deliver his dystopian warning to the world.

Buchan John. Autor
Forma i typ
E-booki
To know Sir Walter Scott as a man is as delightful and fruitful an experience as to appreciate the greatness of his books. In the bicentenary year of the publication of Sir Walter Scott's first novel Waverley, this is a timely republication of John Buchan's biography of Scott - one great storyteller exploring the life of another. Buchan's sympathetic treatment of Scott is perceptive, and his enthusiasm for Scott's work is infectious. Interspersed with superb extracts exhibiting Scott's storytelling skills, John Buchan's short introduction to Scott has never been bettered. To this day, he remains the ideal advocate and guide to the great Sir Walter Scott. John Buchan is the very person to get us reading Scott again, abandoning the superficial media distractions for a grand rumbling rollercoaster of a read - ideal for a stage coach journey, an airport wait, or a holiday lived out of time. FROM THE INTRODUCTION BY DONALD SMITH The almost inspired literary criticism of Sir Walter Scott shows Buchan at his best. DICTIONARY OF NATIONAL BIOGRAPHY

A Constitution for the Common Good / W Elliot Bulmer. - [miejsce nieznane] : Luath Press : Legimi, 2024.
Autor
Bulmer W Elliot. Autor
Forma i typ
E-booki
If Scotland has voted YES on 18 September, how can a written Constitution be good for the people of Scotland? If Scotland has voted NO, how could a new Constitution protect and enhance Scottish democracy within a restructured UK? Whether YES or NO, a reconstituted Scotland is possible and good for all its citizens. Nearly every democracy in the world is built upon a written constitution, and constitutions have been at the core of citizens' demands for better governance in places as disparate as Kenya, Tunisia and Ukraine. With the Scottish National Party promising a written constitution in the event of a YES vote and other parties suggesting other possible options for constitutional change in the event of a NO vote, constitutional change looks certain to remain central to the political agenda in Scotland for some time to come. But what is a constitution for? Is it a defensive charter to protect the basic structures of democratic government, or is it a transformative covenant for a better society? How can the Constitution sustain democracy and promote ethical politics while at the same time recognising and accommodating differences in society? What difference would a good Constitution make to the poor? How can the Constitution help ensure that the common good of the citizenry prevails over private vested interests? In addressing these questions, this book sets out a vision for how Scotland could reconstitute itself. It emphasises the connection between the constitution, democracy and the common good, arguing that democratic self-government is the true prize, regardless of the relationship of Scotland to the rest of the UK. This book not only makes a vital contribution to Scotland's current and on-going constitutional debate, whatever the outcome in September 2014, but also engages with fundamental questions of constitutionalism and democracy that are of enduring relevance to both citizens and scholars around the world.

The contents include 44 of Burns' best known poems including To a Louse, The Cotter's Saturday Night, To a Mouse, The Twa Dogs and To a Mountain Daisy. Released in 2009 to celebrate Burns' 250th birthday, The Luath Kilmarnock Edition brought this classic of Scottish literature back into print, after being unavailable for many years. New material includes an introduction by 'the man who played Burns' -author, actor and Burns expert -John Cairney, exploring Burns' life and work, especially the origins of The Kilmarnock Edition. Looking to the future of Burns in Scotland and the rest of the world, Clark McGinn, world-renowned Burns Supper speaker, provides an afterword that speaks to Burns' continuing legacy. Illustrated throughout with original line drawings by top political satirist Bob Dewar, The Luath Kilmarnock Edition makes a beautiful gift for any Burns enthusiast. "This special illustrated edition celebrates the 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, probably the world's favourite poet. Poems Cheifly in the Scottish Dialect, the only book of his poetry published in his short lifetime, is probably the most significant book ever published from Scotland. Kilmarnock saw that first edition of a young man's poems published in 1786 and Burns has not beeen out of print for a single day since. We are still reading, reciting and enjoying these poems... the writing, life and character of this Ayrshire ploughman inspire deep human emotion around the globe. - FROM THE AFTERWORD BY CLARK McGINN

Burnscripts / John Cairney. - [miejsce nieznane] : Luath Press : Legimi, 2024.
Autor
Cairney John. Autor
Forma i typ
E-booki
This publication is actor John Cairney's life with Robert Burns in theatrical terms. Since 1959, he has been involved with Burns as actor, director and writer. Over the years, Cairney has taken the opportunity to investigate different aspects of Burns as they relate to performance in the theatre. For the first time he has brought all these working playscripts, which have already been tested before a live audience, together in book form. Others interested in the prismatic attraction that is Scotland's Bard can now see how one Scottish actor-writer has dealt with a national icon theatrically. The scripts, written by Cairney, look at Burns' creative work, his everyday life, and his relationships, to build a full picture of the man so important to Scotland's cultural heritage. The plays are followed by an appendix which features a selection of plays written about Burns' life since his death at the age of 37.BACK COVER The overall impression gained in studying Burns' work as a whole is that, given the brevity of his life, it is extraordinary not that he wrote so much, but that so much of it was good. JOHN CAIRNEY Burnscripts is a collection of dramatic scripts by John Cairney interpreting the life and works of Robert Burns.Cairney, as actor, author and scriptwriter, has been connected professionally with Robert Burns for nearly half a century. He has performed as Burns all over the world and consequently knows him better than most. This personal exploration of Burns' life and work in performance helps to build a fuller picture of the poet and is an insightful celebration of one of Scotland's most important cultural icons.
