这是作家司各特(Walter Scott)笔下的故乡——苏格兰,一个注定与神话同在的地方。虽然苏格兰由low lands和high lands两部分组成,大多数人对远离英格兰内陆的苏格兰高地显然有着更深的感情。自从司各特神奇的笔为读者描绘出一幅古代苏格兰的奇诡景象后,世人就没有停止过对那片高原以及生活在那里的民族的遐想;当然,好莱坞的编剧和导演们也时常为这种遐想推波助澜,如梅尔·吉布森和他的影片《勇敢的心》(Brave Heart)。不过,司各特的诗句也让我们想到两件颇为具体而实在的东西:苏格兰威士忌(scotch Whisky)和花格呢(tartan),前者代表了苏格兰人的性格——这里的河流和土地既孕育了它独特的人民也造就了它无法复制的美酒,而后者则记载了这片土地的历史——不同的花格图案属于历史上不同的家族,向今天的人们讲述着不同的故事。
