This book examines how contemporary Scottish writers and artists
revisit and reclaim nature in the political and aesthetic context
of devolved Scotland. Camille Manfredi investigates the interaction
of landscape aesthetics and strategies of spatial representation in
Scotland's twenty-first-century literature and arts, focusing on
the apparatuses designed by nature writers, poets, performers,
walking artists and visual artists to physically and intellectually
engage with the land and re-present it to themselves and to the
world. Through a comprehensive analysis of a variety of
site-specific artistic practices, artworks and publications, this
book investigates the works of Scotland-based artists including
Linda Cracknell, Kathleen Jamie, Thomas A. Clark, Gerry Loose, John
Burnside, Alec Finlay, Hamish Fulton, Hanna Tuulikki and Roseanne
Watt, with a view to exploring the ongoing re-invention of a
territory-bound identity that dwells on an inclusive sense of
place, as well as on a complex renegotiation with the time and
space of Scotland.
