Beschreibung

'Writing Black Scotland is a most needed intervention into twenty-first century understanding of Scottish literature through time, raising questions about 'otherness' and 'othering' as well as purposive colonialism, subjugation and exploitation. The book is lucid, compassionate, discriminating and admirably sensitive to discrete historical moments, illuminating and engaged at every level.' Alan Riach, University of Glasgow A critical approach to blackness in devolutionary Scottish writing Writing Black Scotland examines race and racism in devolutionary Scottish literature, with a focus on the critical significance of blackness. The book reads blackness in Scottish writing from the 1970s to the early 2000s, a period of history defined by post-imperial adjustment. Critiquing a unifying Britishness at work in black British criticism, Jackson argues for the importance of black politics in Scottish writing, and for a literary registration of race and racism which signals a necessary negotiation for national Scotland both before and after 1997. Joseph H. Jackson is Assistant Professor in Twentieth-Century and Contemporary Literature in the School of English at the University of Nottingham. Cover image: (c) Estate of Maud Sulter.
