This collection explores the richness of Scottish intellectual
life, its currents and controversies, from the French Revolution to
the First World War, focusing in particular on the legacy of the
Scottish Enlightenment. Offering a series of cutting-edge
interventions, the contributors cast light on a range of
individuals, themes and episodes from the period. Topics range from
the role of women as intellectuals to the rise of a science of
race, and from freethinking secularism to the debate over George
Davie's influential account of 19th-century universities.
Collectively, the chapters represent a pioneering overview of
Scottish intellectual life during the long 19th century.
