Book Description: Enlightenment's Frontier: The Scottish Highlands and the Origins of Environmentalism (The Lewis Walpole Series in Eighteenth-Century Culture and History) Author: Fredrik Albritton Jonsson Publication Date: 2019 Pages: 368 pages Publisher: Yale University Press Genre: History, Environmental Studies, Cultural Studies Summary: Enlightenment's Frontier is a groundbreaking book that explores the environmental roots of the Scottish Enlightenment and its impact on the development of modern knowledge. The author, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson, examines the forgotten networks of improvers and natural historians who sought to transform the soil, plants, and climate of Scotland in the eighteenth century. The book provides a new perspective on the origins of environmentalism and the fate of progressive thought in the modern era, set against the backdrop of the Scottish Highlands. Plot: The book begins by introducing the reader to the Scottish Enlightenment, a period of intellectual and cultural flowering in Scotland during the eighteenth century. Jonsson argues that this period was not just about economic and political ideas but also had a deep connection with the natural world. He then delves into the forgotten history of improvers and natural historians who sought to transform the Highlands, a vast outdoor laboratory for rival liberal and conservative views of nature and society.
