	The Scotsman - Critique - In search of our lost voices (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Scottish writing has been seen in terms of individuals, and we set out to tell as much of the complete story as possible in our half-hour segments.
		The first knot is the one all Scottish writers face in being perceived as part of a minority culture within Britain.
		Scott is said to have told George IV that Jane Porter’s The Scottish Chiefs was the parent to his Waverley novels and a work of genius; and when Susan Ferrier’s first novel, Marriage, was published in 1818 it netted her a fortune.

	Scottish heritage - Book List
		Although Scottish pottery may be traced back over many centuries, it was not until the mid eighteenth century that it became an important element in the national economy, with the levels of production dramatically increasing throughout the nineteenth century.
		Considerable study of the Scottish pottery industry since the mid twentieth century has revealed the diversification of production and showed that exports and innovation were more significant than previously thought.
		Graeme Cruickshank was a founder member of the Scottish Pottery Society in 1973, established its archive and served as archivist for ten years.

	Scottish Writers
		But apart from their allocated 15 minutes of fame, writers still do tend to remain in the shadows and silently retreat to their lonely study and once again the blank screen of their computer.
		Other famous names from the Scottish Renaissance era, between the 50s and 70s, bringing a fresh new poetic and often political voice in Scotland, also include Robert Garioch, whose poem, Auld Reekie, is a moving tribute to Robert Fergusson`s poem of the same name.
		During the summer there will be weekly events, with a selection of the writers featured in the exhibition appearing in person to talk about their work.

	The New York Review of Books: Orwell's List
		The picture that emerges is of an ill-defined outfit, with a very diverse group of people fumbling their way from the recently finished war against fascist totalitarianism, in which most of them had fought, into the new "cold" war against the communist totalitarianism of Britain's recent wartime ally.
		To be sure, we cannot conclusively say that this was true of all the lesser-known writers and journalists on the list of thirty-eight: that requires further investigation.
		What remains most unsettling about the list he actually sent is the way in which a writer whose name is now a synonym for political independence and journalistic honesty is drawn into collaboration with a bureaucratic department of propaganda, however marginal the collaboration, "white" the propaganda, and good the cause.

		This collection of essays, by both new and established critics, provides stimulating readings of many of the Scottish women writers working in Scots and English today.
		While in the growing field of Scottish women’s writing it is impossible to be all encompassing, these essays cover a wide range from the most established, Muriel Spark, to newer writers such as Laura Hird.
		Exploring the interface between gender and nation as well as the excitement and energy generated by much of this writing, these essays fill a gap in critical response to contemporary Scottish women writers.
