Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. 2001. x, 544pp. Slight crack to the spine. Sunning to the spine. The book is otherwise in very good condition with no inscriptions. "If George Bruce's fine poem describes St Andrews rather than Glasgow, and if the latter is no longer a 'small town', the image which provides the titl…e for this volume nevertheless captures very well the spirit which infused the 1993 International Conference on Scottish Language and Literature (Medieval and Renaissance), the seventh of its kind, the proceedings of which are published here. Jointly organised by the Universities of Strathclyde and Glasgow, the conference had as its central focus the cultural relations between Scotland and its European neighbours, a fitting theme in a city which had recently been honoured with the title 'European City of Culture'. If the sun did not always shine in a literal sense, an awareness of the close historical links between Scotland and the rest of Europe, including England, remained at the centre of the participants' concerns, and the high quality of many of the papers will be apparent to the reader of this volume.".
