Kenneth White on the Breton Coast (The Fundamental Field)

Photograph of the Breton coast, showing sky with sunlight through clouds on a grey sea with distant mountains on the horizon
  • Philosophy / Scottish Literature

William Sharp evokes ‘those wild Breton coasts of the Tréguier headland’ with the ‘grey, muttering waste’ of the sea. Little did I realise, when I must have read these phrases at the age of 14 on a cliff overlooking the north end of the village of Fairlie, in Ayrshire, Scotland that years later I would be living in that self-same area.

Shame in Contemporary You-Narration: Q&A with the author

Q&A with Dr Beth Williamson: A Cultural Biography of William Johnstone

A sepia-toned 18th-century printed broadside titled “TRANSPORTED FOR SEDITION.” The design features ornate borders and three oval engravings of men in period clothing holding papers. Text around the portraits names individuals convicted of sedition and sentenced to transportation (penal exile), including references to courts and dates in the early 1800s. The overall style is decorative and historical, resembling a political or legal proclamation from Britain.
