Description

Explore the deep connection between the Stuart dynasty and Scottish national identity in this Routledge Revival edition. Originally published in 1991, Murray Pittock provides a detailed assessment of how the Stuart mystique shaped the political and cultural landscape of Scotland from 1638 to the present day. This work traces the evolution of the Stuart myth, beginning with the reign of Charles I and extending through to the modern era of the Scottish National Party. Readers will gain a clear understanding of the historical propaganda used by both pro-Union and anti-Union factions. By examining the radicalism of Scottish Jacobitism, Pittock offers a fresh perspective that contrasts the actual Jacobitism of the Left with the sentimental versions created by Victorians. This book is an essential resource for those studying Scottish history, political identity, and the long-term influence of royal dynasties on modern nationhood.
