| Video Discription | FULBRIGHT LECTURE Walter Scotts phenomenally popular novels and poems created an image of Scotland as a land of sublime scenery and heroic chivalry. https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/did-sir-walter-scott-invent-scotland Why is it Scotts version rather than any of the many other nineteenth-century literary representations of Scotland that has endured in the popular imagination? This lecture will explain why Scotts romanticised representations of Scotland were such a hit, and how his enduring legacy has helped or hindered Scotland as it seeks to define its place in Britain today. The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/did-sir-walter-scott-invent-scotland Gresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.
