Scottish fiction and the British Empire

Mack, Douglas S. (Douglas Stuart), 1943-2006
Books, Manuscripts
Douglas Mack argues that writers with roots in non-elite Scotland such as James Hogg and Lewis Grassic Gibbon from the past and Irvine Welsh and James Kelman from the present actively challenge the Imperial Grand Narrative. He shows that Scottish fiction was influential in subverting the assumptions that underpinned the Empire.
