Zusammenfassung:GBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup('ISBN:9780748623341);Gives unique focus to the politics of one of modern Scotland's major cultural figuresBy examining at length for the first time those places in Scotland that inspired MacDiarmid to produce his best poetry, Scott Lyall shows how the poet's politics evolved from his interaction with the nation, exploring how MacDiarmid discovered a hidden tradition of radical Scottish Republicanism through which he sought to imagine a new Scottish future. Adapting postcolonial theory, this book allows readers a fuller understanding not only of MacDiarmid's poetry and politics, but also of international modernism, and the social history of Scottish modernismKey FeaturesThe first full length study to focus on MacDiarmid's politicsReveals, for the first time outside of government files from the National Archives, that MacDiarmid was watched by the Security Services from 1931 to 1943Draws uniquely on Carcanet's multi-volume MacDiarmid 2000 seriesThe first critical book to use the 'Red Scotland' typescript in the National Library of Scotland and have access to the recently rediscovered poems collected as The Revolutionary Art of the Future (2003)
