- W38292860 abstract "in his fiction and nonfiction writings on a developed Britain and undevel oped Scottish Highlands, Robert Louis Stevenson seems to confirm the spa tial and temporal hierarchies inscribed in Scottish Enlightenment historiogra phy. Like such eighteenth-century compatriots as Adam Smith, Stevenson seems to map temporal coordinates onto spatial ones, thereby locating the Highlands and Lowlands at separate stages of social development, reflected in part in the level of advancement of their representational exchange systems. In Kidnapped, for instance, Highland figures, occupying an earlier stage of social development, are entrenched in backwards iconic representations of value, such as the belts of gold they don, while Lowlanders, advanced to more abstract representations of value, simply write checks. Accompanying these chronological stages of monetary economies are respective linguistic economies—oral and motivated in the case of the Highlands, textual and arbitrary in the case of the Lowlands. In distinguishing an Anglo profession al, commercial world from a more primitive, in some senses precommercial, Celtic world based on the degree of development of their economies of material and semiotic exchange, Stevenson pulls together an analysis of what we now call colonialism with a prescient meditation on symbolic economies.1 Yet in doing so, he revises understandings both of the core/periphery binary of internal colonialism, as presented by social theorists such as Michael Hechter, and of monetary and linguistic economies as analo gous, as outlined in the work of Jean-Joseph Goux.2 As Stevenson reflects on the relationship between seemingly distinct economies, he asserts an intricate and wide-ranging vision of linguistic, cultural, and material exchange that challenges both fixed divisions between developed and undeveloped eco nomic spaces and the false analogy that would make the symbolic economies of language and money the same." @default.
