Within the pages of this groundbreaking work, Lorna Hutson delves into the profound question of how England has envisioned Scotland throughout history. Recognized as a vital contribution to the ongoing discourse surrounding British nationhood, Hutson presents a compelling argument that England employed a mythical "British History" in its quest for dominion over its northern neighbor. From military conquest to ingenious attempts at eradicating the very notion of Scotland, Hutson meticulously dissects the multifaceted strategies employed by England. This includes exploring the use of maps, treatises, military propaganda, river poetry, chorography, allegory, epic, tragedies, history plays, and masques. By examining influential works such as Spenser's Faerie Queene, Shakespeare's Henry V and King Lear, and Jonson's Masque of Blackness, Hutson reveals the intricate web of jurisdictional claims and the refusal to acknowledge Scotland's sovereignty.

Renowned scholar John Kerrigan hails Hutson's achievement as a "powerfully innovative book" that transforms our understanding of early modern literature. Through an extensive range of sources, Hutson offers fresh and authoritative interpretations, shedding light on the complexities of race, ethnicity, nationhood, and the enduring presence of Scottish cultural and political identity.

Mark your calendars for this momentous occasion, taking place on November 20, 2023, at the esteemed Cambridge University Press Bookshop, located at 1-2 Trinity Street, Cambridge, CB2 1SZ. Remember, this event is free of charge, but spaces are limited, so ensure your attendance by registering promptly.

Here is the unopened love letters and equations floating in the Kang River&#39;s footprints of Newton, Byron and Hawking on the stone road of the college specimen. Some people say that here is like the open-air version of Hogwarts. Some people say that the apple tree that hit Newton&#39;s head is planted here but Xu Zhi Mo revealed the opportunity a hundred years ago - &quot;My eyes are the bridge that taught me to open&quot; always come to Cambridge to collect a flowing feast. When the evening passes the sigh bridge of St. John&#39;s College, you will hear Xu Zhimo whisper in the wind: &quot;Quiet is parting, silence is the bridge tonight&quot;

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

There is a statue of Henry VIII at the entrance to Trinity College. There is an apple tree on the green lawn at the entrance of the College, which is the source of Newton&#39;s law of gravity. When you enter the courtyard of the College, the magnificent building brings a sense of awe. The front hall of the church is filled with jade statues of famous graduates from Trinity College, including Newton, Bacon, Tennyson and others.

The clock was a little unclear at night. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, the psychology is still a little inexplicable nervous. After all, time, no one can control.
