Description

Explore a significant seventeenth-century tract with this critical edition and translation of De Unione Insulae Britannicae. Written by David Hume of Godscroft, a major intellectual figure in Jacobean Scotland, this work examines the proposed fusion of the Scottish and English kingdoms. This volume provides a deep look into the historical arguments for a new British commonwealth and a distinct British identity. As a leading critic of the anglicizing policies of James VI, Godscroft offers a unique perspective on the political and constitutional landscape of the era. The text is divided into two parts, originally published in London in 1605. The first part outlines the necessity of union, while the second part presents specific political and constitutional proposals. Part of the St Andrews Studies in Reformation History, this book is an essential resource for readers interested in the history of Great Britain, Scottish political thought, and the evolution of the British identity during the Jacobean period.
