- W4320077029 abstract "Maggie Scott’s chapter examines some of the ways that Scotland’s languages are used in twenty-first century fiction to undermine ‘metrovincial’ perspectives. Scott analyses how the multiplicity of voices in post-devolution Scottish fiction provides examples of local cultural references, knowledge – and especially language – that refute standard linguistic and cultural hegemonies and establish narratives within their own self-determined centres of power and place. She then demonstrates how the works of a growing number of contemporary writers engaging with many of the varieties of language found in modern Scotland reposition the local as the international and invert traditional metrovincial paradigms, where the provincialism of the metropolis is allowed to dominate unchallenged and where the cultures, languages and practices of ‘the faraway’ are dismissed, stigmatised or ignored. Scott argues that multilingual practices including ‘broader’ varieties of Scots, ‘prestigious’ forms of Scottish English, but also elements of Scottish Gaelic, Urdu, Panjabi and diverse English dialects have the potential to act for under-represented or marginalised identities in order to, in the words of Suhayl Saadi, ‘enact both a progressive politics and a meaningful literature [that] must be about enabling the possibility of dissent against the sources of power’." @default.
