The Highland House Transformed: Architecture and Identity on the Edge of Britain: 1700-1850 - Brossura
Sinossi
The Highland House Transformed examines the domestic architecture of the Scottish Highlands, exploring the distinct character of the houses and villages of the Highlands, their architectural sameness, and how they relate to the history of the region, In the Highlands and Islands the construction of hundreds of new farmhouses, cottages and planned villages throughout the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was a key element in a revolutionary process of agricultural improvement that permanently transformed the landscape. Agricultural improvement initiated the mass clearances of thousands of traditional settlements, replaced by a Highland building boom of new 'modern' houses. These were designed to demonstrate that a new Scottish Highlands, improving and prosperous, had emerged out of the political turmoil of the mid-eighteenth century to take its place within the wider economy and consumer society of early modern Britain.
