The Scots Imagination and Modern Memory Blaikie, Andrew (Professor of Historical Sociology, University of Aberdeen)

Blaikie explores how our different ways of seeing influence the relationship between place and belonging. He argues that our memories, however brief or complex, invoke imagined pasts. But do our recollections share a common frame of reference? Blaikie’s cross-disciplinary exploration sets out to answer this question. Includes numerous case studies.
