Very pleased to have finished the final touches on 'Beyond the Enlightenment: Scottish Intellectual Life, 1790-1914' (edited by me and Colin Kidd, due #EdinburghUP in May)!

The volume explores how Scottish intellectual culture shifted from the Enlightenment to the Victorians (and beyond).

Starting a project just as covid hit wasn't ideal, so many thanks to our talented team of postdocs and all our contributors (and to #LeverhulmeTrust and #StAndrewsHistory for support)
