The discovery of Scotland; Uncanny places: The Victorian Occult; visions of suburbia: interdisciplinary representations, 1850-2000; British places: literature 1880-1950; post-colonial Canadian literature; contemporary Scottish cultural studies; the relationships between these different classes are conceptualised differently by different students, but 1 thread that runs though several of them (including post-colonial canadian literature) is an investigation of the way Scotland has been imaged and imagined in the last 300 years in different media and from different perspectives; the course takes advantage of the rich resources available locally; the discovery of Scotland: draws on the special collections of 18th century Scottish travel writing in the university library and includes visits to the national gallery of Scotland in Edinburgh and to Loch Katrine in the Trossachs; post-colonial Canadian literature takes advantage of the extensive Canadian collections at the national library of Scotland in Edinburgh.
