Minorities and Memories: Survivals and Extinctions in Scotland and Western EuropeCarolina Academic Press, 2001 - 311 pagini Local histories and senses of identity are linked with national trends and events, including the inauguration in 1999 of a devolved Scottish Parliament. Chapters on the Picts and on the Covenanters of the seventeenth century show how historical memories of diverse kinds feed into contemporary identities. Minorities and Memories makes a creative contribution to the development of historical anthropology as well as to studies of senses of identity in general and within Scotland itself."--BOOK JACKET. |
