From the sixteenth century, classical texts enabled Scottish and
English authors and artists to imagine the character and appearance
of their forebears and to consider the relevance of these ideas to
their contemporaries. Richard Hingley's study crosses traditional
academic boundaries by exploring sources usually separately
addressed by historians, classicists, archaeologists, and
geographers, to provide a new perspective on the origin of English
and Scottish identity. His book is the first full exploration of
these issues to cover such a long period in the development of
British society and to relate ideas derived from Roman sources to
the development of empire, while also placing ideas of origin in a
European context. It is illustrated throughout with artefact
drawings, site plans, and photographs.
