Synopsis

The three papers contained in this book, originally presented at a Glasgow University conference, are written from very different points of view; but their authors are fully agreed on this: that the suppression and near extinction of the Scots tongue is both deplorable in itself and gravely detrimental to the health of the nation. Starting from the premise that Scots ought to hold a far larger, more productive and more respected place in the national life than it has been allowed to hold in the past, they discuss the problems involved in its reinstatement.
