Culloden: Great Battles
ISBN: 9780199664078 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. The battle of Culloden lasted less than an hour. The forces involved on both sides were small, even by the standards of the day. And it is arguable that the ultimate fate of the 1745 Jacobite uprising had in fact been sealed ever since the Jacobite retreat from Derby several months before.
But for all this, Culloden is a battle with great significance in British history. It was the last pitched battle on the soil of the British Isles to be fought with regular troops on both sides. It came to stand for the final defeat of the Jacobite cause. And it was the last domestic contestation of the... The battle of Culloden lasted less than an hour.

ISBN: 9780748627561 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The first edition of The Myth of the Jacobite Clans was a revolutionary book. It argued that British history had long sought to caricature Jacobitism rather than to understand it, and that the Jacobite Risings drew on extensive Lowland support and had a national quality within Scotland. The Times Higher Education Supplement hailed its author's 'formidable talents' and the book and its ideas fuelled discussions in the national press.Now entirely rewritten with extensive new primary research, this second edition addresses the questions of the first in more detail, examining the systematic...

James Johnson's Scots Musical Museum (1787-1803) is now inextricably linked to its greatest contributor, the Scots poet Robert Burns. In his Ormiston Roy Lecture, Murray Pittock shows that the simple question "Who Wrote the Scots Musical Museum?" raises complex questions about the nature of authorship and editing in the collaborative and social enterprise of song publication.

Robert Burns (1759 -1796), Scotland's national poet and pioneer of the Romantic Movement, has been hugely influential across Europe and indeed throughout the world.

Scottish and Irish Romanticism
ISBN: 9780199232796 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Scottish and Irish Romanticism is the first single-author book to address the main non-English Romanticisms of the British Isles. Murray Pittock begins by questioning the terms of his chosen title as he searches for a definition of Romanticism and for the meaning of 'national literature'. He proposes certain determining 'triggers' for the recognition of the presence of a national literature, and also deals with two major problems which are holding back the development of a new and broader understanding of British Isles Romanticisms: the survival of outdated assumptions in ostensibly...

ISBN: 9780719058264 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This work explores the idea of the Celt and the definition of the so-called "Celtic Fringe" over the last 300 years. It is an in-depth study of the literary and cultural representation of Ireland, Scotland and Wales over this period, and is based on a wide-ranging grasp of issues of national identity and state formation. The idea of the Celt and Celticism is once again highly fashionable. Is there such a common Celtic heritage? What is the place of the "Celtic Fringe" in British identity?

The Reception of Sir Walter Scott in Europe
ISBN: 9780826474100 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) had an immense impact throughout Europe. His historical fiction, which brought the ideas of Enlightenment to bear on the novel, created for the first time a sense of the past as a place where people thought, felt and dressed differently. His writing influenced Balzac, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Dumas, Pushkin and many others; and Scott's interpretation of history was seized on by Romantic nationalists, particularly in Eastern Europe. This book gives for the first time a comprehensive account of the impact of Scott in Europe, from the early and highly...
