| Resumen: |
Este libro aborda la poética del espacio y el lugar en la literatura escocesa. Centrándose principalmente en textos de los siglos XX y XXI, con reconocimiento de contextos históricos y filosóficos, los ensayos abordan la representación, la forma narrativa, el trabajo de lo poético, la percepción y la experiencia. Se analizan los principales géneros y formas, y se presentan autores tan diversos como George Mackay Brown, Kathleen Jamie, Ken McLeod y Kei Miller a través de lecturas detalladas teóricamente informadas e históricamente contextualizadas. Además de considerar el papel del dialecto y la región en la poesÃa y la ficción de la Escocia moderna, el volumen aboga por una apreciación de la diversidad cultural de los escritores escoceses, al tiempo que destaca la presencia general de una conexión entre uno mismo y el mundo, el tema y el lugar dentro de la literatura escocesa. |

| Summary : |
This book addresses the poetics of space and place in Scottish literature. Focusing chiefly on twentieth- and twenty-first century texts, with acknowledgement of historical and philosophical contexts, the essays address representation, narrative form, the work of the poetic, perception and experience. Major genres and forms are discussed, and authors as diverse as George Mackay Brown, Kathleen Jamie, Ken McLeod and Kei Miller are presented through theoretically informed, historically contextualized close readings. Additionally considering the role of dialect and region in the poetry and fiction of modern Scotland, the volume argues for an appreciation of the cultural diversity of Scottish writers while highlighting the overarching presence of a connection between self and world, subject and place within Scottish literature. |
