Letter: Identity crisis
Andrew H N Gray (Letters, 29 March) sees no impropriety in publicly denigrating the concept of Scottish national identity, while being secretly proud to be Scots.
This dilemma has been shared by many creative Scottish writers, to some extent, even by Sir Walter Scott. This feeling has been described as "the Caledonian Antisyzygy".
