Essay from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: B1 (17/22), University of Glasgow (Department of English Literature), course: Module T4 - Postcolonialism: Theory and Writing, language: English, abstract: Just a few weeks ago, in a tutorial for the Postcolonial Studies course I am taking, I heard that, at a university in Britain, someone had put Lewis Grassic Gibbon’sSunset Songon the curriculum - a selection which struck me as incongruous, having read the book in a Scottish Literature class. I thought to myself, how far can one go in the mission of reading a postcolonial context onto or into any text? Is it enough for a text to display some sort of theme of displacement or estrangement, a struggle with identity, for it to be postcolonial? If this question is to be answered in the affirmative, and if ‘postcolonialism is extended to an increasing number of contexts, a need to rely upon theoretical models that lack materialist specificity in favour of general applicability’ is indispensable. Although ‘postcolonial theory is often seen as applicable to contexts that are not colonial’, as it deals with issues of displacement, marginalisation and otherness in general, one Scottish play registered to me as befitting perfectly well both a colonial context, as well as one of displacement and marginalisation, is Liz Lochhead’sMary Queen of Scots Got Her Head Chopped Off(MQS). Although it can be seen as a history play, it is effectively a revisitation of the history and myths that surround Mary Queen of Scots and Elizabeth I, which seeks to ‘debate the ideas and representations of “Scottishness”’ in a Scotland that is nowadays still subjugated by the English supremacy in Britain.

Liz Lochhead's play 'Mary Queen of Scots Got Her Head Chopped Off' is about the bitter rivalry between Mary, Queen of Scots, and her cousin and fellow ruler, Elizabeth I of England. The story is presented in a distinctive cabaret style, with much of the dialogue in the 'Braid Scots' vernacular. It explores the deep sectarian divisions within Scotland and dramatises the fateful moment the country rejected Mary's Catholicism for the Protestantism of anti-feminist revolutionary John Knox.

Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots My aim has been to state - fairly, briefly, and clearly - all the more important and more interesting events in Mary's life up to the date of her flight into England, without attempting to suggest or sustain any theory. The text has been almost entirely drawn from the State Papers, the official records, and the letters of the period, and from the contemporary histories and chronicles. Controverted points are freely dealt with in the Notes; and there special attention has been paid to the works of two of the Queen's most recent and best-known biographers - Father Stevenson and Mr. (now Sir John) Skelton. It will be seen that the former has dimmed his great reputation as an historical student by pre judice, partiality, and perversion; and that the latter not only rivals him in these faults, but is so reckless in matters of fact and so careless in quotation that no reliance can be placed on his statements, no weight on his opinions.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots in History I confess it is no easy task to present a complete and, at the same time, correct picture of her career. The difficulty is owing to the large amount of matter, written in different and contradictory spirits, with which some of the most important events of her life have been obscured. Religion, politics, patriotism, avarice, personal friendships and hatreds, either con jointly or individually, determined the actions of those who bad part in framing the history of the period. It becomes necessary, therefore, to learn how far the men on whose testimony, or from whose conduct, we have to pass judgment on certain incidents in Mary's life, were influenced by one or other of these motives.
