 ASLS: Scottish Literature in 1400
The history of Scotland for most of the fourteenth century had been of foreign warfare and civil disorder ineffectually countered by the efforts of feeble kings; but by 1400 the exhausted and strife-torn kingdom was struggling towards recovery.
Yet the reigns of the first two Stewart kings, though perhaps the most inglorious period in the history of the Scottish monarchy, saw the first literary expressions of a new spirit of Scottish national identity, and the first stages in the deliberate creation of a national self-image to sustain it.
Scotland’s literary achievement in three languages during the years around 1400, that is, showed a pride and confidence in startling contrast to the nation’s recent undistinguished record.

In this survey of Western literature, we will be looking broadly at the ways literature depicts the complex codes that determine cultural roles based on one’s gender.
How has Western literature addressed questions of what must a man do to act like a man, and what is the proper work of a woman?
