Summary: "An Outline of the Relations between England and Scotland (500-1707)" by Robert S. Rait is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work examines the complex international history between England and Scotland over a span of more than a millennium, from the early medieval period up until the political union of the two nations in the early 18th century. Rait aims to provide a structured narrative of the interactions between the two countries, emphasizing that while Scotland's history often intersects with England's, England's historical narrative tends to regard its neighbor sporadically. The opening of this historical account sets the stage for Rait's exploration of the intertwined histories of Scotland and England. He acknowledges the influence of previous historians and highlights the necessity of a comprehensive analysis of their relations. Rait argues that Scottish history is often seen through a skewed perspective, leading to a neglect of the nuanced engagement between the two nations. His introduction promises an in-depth investigation of significant periods, such as the Wars of Independence and the eventual unification, while underlining the impact of racial intermingling and feudal systems on the shaping of national identities. Overall, the start of Rait's work serves to foreground the complexity of Anglo-Scottish relations, setting the tone for a thorough examination of their historical context.
