Description
James Boswell, Sir Walter Scott and Hugh MacDiarmid are three of Scotland's greatest authors. Across three turbulent centuries, these writers were to shape the way the world looked at Scotland. This documentary looks at the lives of these men who were so pivotal in shaping Scotland's character. Great Scots: The Writers Who Shaped a Nation looks back at these creative geniuses to answer the crucial question: What image of Scotland will the nation choose for itself this time? In this episode, we take a look at the work of James Boswell, a man with a dueling pride for his Scottish country and a love for England. After meeting English writer Samuel Johnson, a man with an outspoken prejudice against Scotland, the two forge an unlikely friendship. This friendship lays the foundation for each of their legacies.
