项目摘要

Sparked by Scottish International (Review) in 1968, a range of small independent magazines played a major creative role in Scottish literature, culture and politics over the next three decades. Fostered by the Scottish Arts Council, these titles featured (publicly subsidised) poetry and short fiction, and were the key venue in which writers, journalists and campaigners developed a shared agenda centred on Scottish cultural difference, literary revival and democratic dissent. Writing in Radical Scotland in 1983, George Kerevan noted that 'politics is no longer confined to the Establishment and Labourist agenda of economic tinkering. Cultural values represent a new Second Front'. The arena of this 'second front' was established - and gradually expanded - by titles such as New Edinburgh Review (from 1969), Chapman (1970), Crann-Tàra (1977), MsPrint (1978) and Cencrastus (1979). By the 1980s, these magazines had significant influence on the 'first' front - the field of electoral politics - in yoking together assertions of Scottish cultural identity and demands for constitutional change. Looking back, we can see post-1960s magazine culture as the laboratory in which the discourse and identity of the 'new' Scotland was experimentally debated, strategised and disseminated. These titles were also key sites of literary innovation, featuring work by every major and emerging Scottish poet of the period (Maclean, Morgan, Leonard, Lochhead, Jamie), short fiction by James Kelman, Janice Galloway, Iain Crichton Smith, and many others, and even the watershed of the modern Scottish novel, Alasdair Gray's Lanark. The same titles featured key essays and critical interventions by thinkers such as Tom Nairn, Isobel Lindsay and George E. Davie, influential debates on the marginalisation of women's writing, and were a key venue for the reassertion of Scottish folk traditions and the importance of Gaelic and Scots. Constant crossover between literary, cultural and electoral debate - from page to page and within the same article - is central to the interest and influence of these titles. To the extent that an earlier process of 'cultural devolution' paved the way for the new Scottish parliament in 1999, it can be directly witnessed in the writing, criticism and artwork of these magazines, and in the interpretive communities and political alliances which were formed around and through them.The study and re-discovery of these magazines matters: first, because they are the 'missing link' in recent scholarship on Scottish culture and politics, the neglected arena in which movements for literary identity and democratic renewal intersect and interact. These magazines also answer the strong public appetite to understand the cultural and intellectual strands that helped to form today's Scotland. They had far-reaching impact in post-1960s Scottish literature, politics and cultural life, but they are seriously overlooked in histories and literary studies of the period. To address these needs, our network brings together four key groups: - academic researchers (working in Scottish history, literature, politics, publishing)- editors, contributors, and readers of our target magazines- students, media and members of the public curious about Scotland's recent magazine heritage- experts in restoring comparable magazines to public life through digitisationThe network will establish the resources and frameworks necessary to put these magazines firmly back on the map, potentially via a future digitisation programme (in partnership with the National Library of Scotland). Through our publications (including a taster 'megazine' reproducing the content and design of our target titles), we will boost the profile of these materials, stimulate new research directions, and consolidate the research field. Everyone interested in the intersection of cultural and political developments in recent Scottish history will benefit from this research and these resources.

在1968年《苏格兰国际评论》的推动下，一系列小型独立杂志在接下来的30年里对苏格兰的文学、文化和政治发挥了重要的创造性作用。这些书目由苏格兰艺术委员会培育，以诗歌和短篇小说为特色(得到公共资助)，是作家、记者和活动家围绕苏格兰文化差异、文学复兴和民主异议制定共同议程的关键场所。1983年，乔治·克里万在《激进的苏格兰》一书中指出，政治不再局限于权势集团和工人主义的经济修补议程。文化价值观代表着新的第二战线。《新爱丁堡评论》(1969年)、《查普曼》(1970年)、《克伦-塔拉》(1977)、《普林特女士》(1978)和《辛克拉斯塔斯》(1979)等头衔奠定了这一‘第二战线’的舞台，并逐渐扩大。到了20世纪80年代，这些杂志在第一条战线--选举政治领域--产生了重大影响，将苏格兰文化身份的主张与修改宪法的要求联系在一起。回首往事，我们可以将60年代后的杂志文化视为试验性的辩论、战略和传播“新”苏格兰的话语和身份的实验室。这些书目也是文学创新的关键地点，收录了那个时期每一位主要的和新兴的苏格兰诗人(麦克林、摩根、伦纳德、罗奇黑德、杰米)的作品，詹姆斯·凯尔曼、贾尼斯·加洛韦、伊恩·克莱顿·史密斯等人的短篇小说，甚至是现代苏格兰小说的分水岭阿拉斯代尔·格雷的拉纳克。这些书目包括汤姆·奈恩、伊泽贝尔·林赛和乔治·E·戴维等思想家的关键文章和批评性发言，关于女性写作边缘化的有影响力的辩论，也是重申苏格兰民间传统和盖尔语和苏格兰人重要性的关键场所。文学、文化和选举辩论之间的不断交叉--从一页到另一页，以及同一篇文章--是这些标题的兴趣和影响力的核心。在某种程度上，较早的“文化权力下放”过程为1999年的新苏格兰议会铺平了道路，从这些杂志的写作、批评和艺术作品中，以及在这些杂志周围和通过它们形成的解释社区和政治联盟中，可以直接看到这一点。对这些杂志的研究和重新发现很重要：首先，因为它们是最近苏格兰文化和政治学术中“缺失的一环”，在这个被忽视的舞台上，文学认同运动和民主复兴运动相互交织和互动。这些杂志还回应了公众对了解帮助形成今天的苏格兰的文化和智力线索的强烈胃口。他们在20世纪60年代后的苏格兰文学、政治和文化生活中产生了深远的影响，但在这一时期的历史和文学研究中却被严重忽视。为了满足这些需求，我们的网络汇集了四个关键群体：-学术研究人员(从事苏格兰历史、文学、政治、出版工作)-我们目标杂志的编辑、撰稿人和读者-对苏格兰最近的杂志遗产感兴趣的学生、媒体和公众成员-通过数字化将可比杂志恢复到公共生活中的专家网络将建立必要的资源和框架，以使这些杂志牢牢地重新出现在地图上，可能通过未来的数字化计划(与苏格兰国家图书馆合作)。通过我们的出版物(包括一本复制我们目标书目的内容和设计的品尝杂志)，我们将提升这些材料的知名度，激发新的研究方向，并巩固研究领域。每个对苏格兰近代史中文化和政治发展的交集感兴趣的人都将从这项研究和这些资源中受益。
