- W2608981036 abstract "It is a truism of our time that the exponential growth of the visual media as a means of communication has shortened attention spans: an observation which, if true, goes some distance to accounting for the increasing marginalization of history as a curricular subject in schools. At the same time, the speed with which events are reported in the contemporary media is probably a more accurate measure of their nature than subsequent systematization used to allow: overdetermined narratives of historical change are thus put out of fashion. The title of this chapter, though, is not merely intended to be a reflection of that fashion: but to illuminate the speed with which the debate on identity in contemporary Scotland is growing and changing, while recognizing the limitations of journalism’s central cliche, which is to exaggerate the freshness of any development, measuring the complex likelihood of historical shifts by the narrow focus of succeeding stories. The cliche of language is a surer indicator of the staleness of thought than the supposed changes it aims to describe: hence journalism of all sorts is saturated in cliche, while purporting to inform us of what is different and new. All football games are different, but it is in itself a cliche of our times that they are usually all described in similar terms." @default.
