From its 17th-century origins, the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh, one of the great research libraries of the world in every field, has developed an extraordinary collection of printed and manuscript material relating to Scotland and to the Scots. From genuine early Gaelic literature and the fictions of Ossian; from Mary, Queen of Scots, to explorer David Livingstone and architect Robert Adam; from great figures of the Enlightenment of the stature of David Hume and Adam Smith, to soldiers like Earl Haig; from Inveraray and Culloden to the furthest reaches of Australia and America, the Scots and Scotland have made history and changed the world. This celebration of the Library's Scottish collections, widely interpreted, provides a brief history of the institution and the development of its holdings, and focuses on a selection of the most interesting, exciting and unusual items, often going beyond the conventional 'treasures', describing and illustrating each one. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In the years between about 1810 and 1840, Edinburghlong and affectionately known as Auld Reekiecame to think of itself and be widely regarded as something else: the city became Modern Athens, an epithet later turned to the Athens of the North. The phrase is very well-known. It is also much used by those who have little understanding of the often confused and contradictory messages hidden within the apparent convenience of a trite or hackneyed term that conceals a myriad of nuanced meanings. This book examines the circumstances underlying a remarkable change in perception of a place and an age. It looks in detail at the when, the by whom, the why, the how, and the with what consequences of this most interesting, if extremely complex, transformation of one city into an imagephysical or spiritual, or bothof another. A very broad range of evidence is drawn upon, the story having not only topographical, artistic, and architectural dimensions but also social, cerebral, and philosophical ones. Edinburgh may well have been considered Athenian. But, in essence, it remained what it had always been. Maybe, however, for a brief period it was really a sort of hybrid: Auld Greekie. In the early nineteenth century, Edinburgh (known as Auld Reekie) came to be regarded as the Athens of the North. Why was this? How was the notion invented? What were its consequences? Topography, architectural development, literary and social history are all examined in a quest to give meaning to an epithet known by many but understood by few.
