NATURE AND SPACE IN CONTEMPORARY SCOTTISH WRITI...

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.
