Double-weighted statement
This book provides the first book-length study of the exchange between Scotland and the Netherlands, as exemplified by the History professor Charles Mackie, exploring aspects of the early enlightenment and the internationalisation of the public sphere. It is based on extensive and unique archival research in both Scotland and the Netherlands, and offers both a quantitative and qualitative analysis of a large number of primary sources in Dutch, English and Latin.
