Abstract:
Looking back on his early life in Aberdeen, Byron declared that he was ‘half a Scot by birth, and bred / A whole one’. To what extent should we privilege such a claim? In what ways did Byron engage with a Scottish poetic heritage, if at all? By expanding our remit of what counts as ‘Scottish’ within his work, and in the period more broadly, we come closer to understanding Byron’s investment in the people, poets, and places associated with his maternal country. Narrowly focusing on a small selection of Scottish poems (chiefly ‘Lachin Y Gair’, ‘Song’, and ‘Golice Macbane’) has obscured the many

Abstract:
This article focuses on several unexplored relationships between the poetry of Robert Burns and Lord Byron. In the first part of the article, I discuss how Burns and Byron manipulated their chosen verse forms to perform an ironic account of their own productions, which are often critical not only of conventional tastes, but also of their role as poets. In the second part of this article, I turn to two satires: ‘A Dream’, a poem that featured in Burns’s debut volume, Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect (1786), and Byron’s ‘The Vision of Judgment’ (1822). Here I explore the shared satiric sym

In 2009, Scotland was celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, the country’s world-famous and greatest national bard.

It is the title of this first collection that has been borrowed for a recent anthology of poems New Poems.

This paper considers the use of paradox in poetry generally, before going on to look specifically at how it is used in the Book of Psalms and in poetry relating to or influenced by the Psalms. It focusses particularly on the historical influence that the Psalms had on Scottish writers, paradox in twentieth-century Scottish poetry, and how the poets of today use paradox in work that references or that to some extent is inspired by the Psalms.

Abstract:
Scottish literature is not characterized by having been written in a single, evolving language such as is familiar in a lineage of English literature, English being the common language, notwithstanding the writer’s nationality. Rather, Scottish literature is informed by the understanding that literary expression arises in more than one language and, in Scotland, is created by writers most often working in at least two languages, with new work being published in Gaelic, Scots and English. This essay concerns the issue of multilingualism in Scottish literature, particularly poetry, offering a re

Abstract:
A northern variety of Old English developed in Scotland into what has become known as Scots. This language of the Scottish court and literature prior to the Acts of Union was abandoned by both king and poets after the Union with England. English replaced Scots in public institutions, to schools and literature. The most fatal development was the change of attitude of the Scottish themselves, who came to regard Scots as an inferior variety of English. There have been repeated attempts by Scottish writers, to revive Scots as a national language of Scotland. Since the 1970s a number of projects ha

It argues that these paratexts played an integral part in Hogg’s writing career and, as such, should be considered among his most important works.

Abstract:
Oft-times, Lowland Scots wrote of death in the eighteenth century without engaging in what we now call ‘Scottish Gothic’. Witness Robert Blair, above, Edinburgh-born, as he brings the adverb ‘complexionally’ to an otherwise straightforward example of the ancient and melancholy ubi sunt trope.1 Blair’s melancholy is here expressed in a fantastically influential poem called The Grave (1743). Blair’s fascinating poem, to which this chapter will return at its conclusion, is rightly held to be foundational for the study of what until recently was thought of as a pan-British ‘Graveyard School’ of poetry. That label describes an extremely loose collection of mid-eighteenth-century authors whose poems were written in a more or less ‘standard’ English, and often troped the graveyard. The category invokes such disparate poets as the English-born Thomas Gray and Edward Young or the Scottish-born James Thomson and James Beattie.

Abstract:
explores tensions between each poet’s representation of school and the use of their poetry as prescribed texts in the school syllabus. Subheadings: Four Poems about School presents readings of Lochhead, ‘Kidspoem/Bairnsang’; Meehan, ‘The Exact Moment I Became a Poet’; Clarke, ‘Running Away to the Sea -1955’; Duffy, The Laughter of Stafford Girls High. Poetry by Women in the Curriculum, and the Tortured Poem examines the impoverished range of poetry taught in English schools since the introduction of the national curriculum in England in 1988; critiques methods of assessment and how these may affect students’ long term appreciation of curriculum poets. Gillian Clarke and Carol Ann Duffy in the AQA Syllabus 2004-11 (Series 4) assesses the prescribed texts by these two poets, and contrasts them with set texts by Simon Armitage and Seamus Heaney. Curriculum Interventions by Lochhead and Duffy explores controversy sparked by Duffy’s prescribed poem ‘Education for Leisure’ and her riposte, ‘Mrs Schofield’s GCSE’. It also examines Lochhead’s participation in the Scottish Studies Working Group. To conclude, Questioning Cultural Consensus, articulates the poets’ resistance against covert, consensus-building agenda of prescribed curricula and their promotion instead of education as an instrument of individuation.
