Few would apply the label of 'nationalist' to themselves, and fewer still to any part of our history before the 1700s. But then, where does it come from? And what does it mean for us today? With one eye on the present as he unpicks the past, Owen Dudley Edwards finds nationalism to be older than recorded history and broader than modern geography. Our Nations and Nationalisms traces the phenomena back as far as the Old Testament and the works of Homer and Virgil, through the attempts of Shakespeare and James VI \u0026amp; I to found the first British Union, and into the Celtic legends that helped form the identities held in the UK today. Taking wide-ranging examples from ancient to modern, from home and abroad, Dudley Edwards interrogates nationalism in action, asking what it really is and how it has impacted upon all of our lives, wherever we live or were born This demonised word, he argues, is a fact of human nature. It may take a variety of forms, but we are all, in some sense, 'nationalists'; it is incumbent upon each of us to find ways to use this fact in the interests of humanity, and not a single nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003c!-- Why You'll Love This Ebook --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love This Ebook\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthentic Scottish voices\u003c\/strong\u003e and captivating narratives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRich cultural heritage\u003c\/strong\u003e woven throughout every page.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublished by Luath Press\u003c\/strong\u003e, Scotlands leading independent publisher.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstantly accessible\u003c\/strong\u003e through The Grey Hill App.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003c!-- About the Author --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-sleek-node-id=\"Hizw0m\"\u003eOWEN DUDLEY EDWARDS was born on the 27th March 1938 in Dublin, Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-sleek-node-id=\"VUNSXS\"\u003eEdwards is an Irish historian and former Reader in Commonwealth and American History at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland.
