Описание: As the debate about Scottish independence rages on, this book takes a timely look at how Scotland’s politics have been expressed in its buildings, exploring how the architecture of Scotland – in particular the constantly-changing ideal of the ‘castle’ – has been of great consequence to the ongoing narrative of Scottish national identity. Scotch Baronial provides a politically-framed examination of Scotland’s kaleidoscopic ‘castle architecture’, tracing how it was used to serve successive political agendas both prior to and during the three ‘unionist centuries’ from the early 17th century to the 20th century. The book encompasses many of the country’s most important historic buildings – from the palaces left behind by the ‘lost’ monarchy, to revivalist castles and the proud town halls of the Victorian age – examining their architectural styles and tracing their wildly fluctuating political and national connotations. It ends by bringing the story into the 21st century, exploring how contemporary ‘neo-modernist’ architecture in today’s Scotland, as exemplified in the Holyrood parliament, relates to concepts of national identity in architecture over the previous centuries.
