Produktbeschreibung
Dùthchas is a Gaelic word reflecting the rich culture that derives from the connection between people and their landscape, and this is a book that celebrates the manifestation of that concept in Mull, Iona and the surrounding islands. Inspired by the beauty of the magnificent landscape, the writing celebrates the fortitude and resilience of the local community living in a relatively remote and sometimes hostile corner of the world since the beginning of time through to the modern era. As context, the book also traces the wider sweep of Scottish history including the powerful influence of clans, the emergence of Scotland as a nation state, the fateful decision to become a part of the United Kingdom, and the more recent renaissance to become a nation again. The final sections of the book celebrate the resilience of the modern society, including three case studies of significant community activism, and accounts of the endeavours of some remarkable individuals, families and organisations.
