The making of the historian who transformed Scottish history and the nationâ s understanding of its past
Craig Beveridge is an independent scholar who trained and pursued research in history at the University of Edinburgh where he won the Kirkpatrick Prize. He subsequently pursued a career in public service management but continued to research and write. His previous publications include Scotland After Enlightenment: Image and Tradition in Modern Scottish Culture (Polygon, 1997) and The Eclipse of Scottish Culture: Inferiorism and the Intellectuals, (Polygon, 1989), both co-authored with R. M. Turnbull. These works attracted public interest and controversy, were widely reviewed, and have continued to be recognised and cited in prominent books from a variety of standpoints as distinctive contributions to the debates on Scottish culture and historiography over recent decades. He has been recognised as an prominent figure in the cultural and political reappraisal which began following the failed 1979 Referendum on the Scottish constitution, arguing for a reassertion of Scottish cultural identity both in terms of the country's intellectual traditions and in response to predominant historiographic approaches which devalorised the nation's past. He advanced these aims both in the above works and as an influential contributor to the leading Scottish cultural magazines of the 1980s and 1990s.
