Bringing together essential discussions of Older Scots, Gaelic, Latin, and English literature, this volume offers a foundational introduction to Scottish texts written in the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries. It discusses the cultural impact of key Scottish intellectual and political movements and events, such as the Reformation and the Union of the Crowns. Its thematic and genre-specific approach encourages engagement with the cultural and historical assumptions underpinning the Scottish texts of the period, while fully covering writers from Gilbert Hay to Thomas Urquhart.
