DESCRIPTION:This one-day symposium aims to explore the exciting breadth a
 nd diversity of recent Scottish writing\, attending to the importance of
  both tradition and innovation and examining how post-millennial texts n
 egotiate and re-configure the boundaries of Scottish literature.\n\nQues
 tions of Scottishness and of Scottish literature have been of particular
  interest in the twenty-first century\, in part because the start of the
  new millennium roughly coincides with Scottish devolution in 1999. Expl
 oration of Scottish literature becomes ever more pertinent as the refere
 ndum on Scottish independence approaches. This symposium aims to take st
 ock of the critical perspectives on Scottish writing and to explore the 
 questions being raised as discussion about Scottish identity amplifies i
 n anticipation of this new cultural land mark.\n\n
