It makes one place on a map more than simply in a different location to another place on a map. Scotland is no exception to this. From our tartans and traditions, to our writing, music, languages and so much more, the culture that has come to define Scotland has become known around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCringe no more\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the centuries since the birth of the union in 1707, Scots have been gradually all been taught to dislike, dismiss, or even flat out deny our culture. Known as the Scottish Cringe, this in-built censor manifests in all sorts of ways, often near words like 'twee' and 'parochial'. Bringing a focus and sense of worth to Scottish culture is one of the main aims of Indy Prints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout this piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Scots language has almost never been taught in Scottish schools (although in last decade it has started to become included). Generations of Scots were therefore taught the English names for countries and cities in Europe. Even the seas had English names. However, Scots, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003elike many languages, often has its own name for other places. Many of these names make clear Scotland's long history of trade and cultural exchange with our European family. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWith thanks to Dr Dauvit Horsbroch at the Scots Language Centre for his \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.scotslanguage.com\/articles\/view\/id\/873\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eresearch\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe artwork\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis hand-drawn pen and ink map takes inspiration from art and design of the twentieth century.
