Este artículo es un estudio cultural del escritor James Leslie Mitchell / Lewis Grassic Gibbon en su contexto histórico, los primeros años treinta en Escocia. Analiza especialmente sus novelas The Thirteenth Disciple, Spartacues y A Scots Quair, y su crítica del funcionamiento de la ideología, su relación con la fe en la humanidad y su distorsión del radicalismo necesario para cambiar un mundo enfermo. Una imagen crucial de su enfoque materialista de la cultura y la política guarda un gran parecido con la angustia existencialista del Mito de Sísifo de Camus: es la roca de la fe creativa que vuelve a caer sobre la ideología violenta cada vez que un valiente Sísifo supera una colina de la Historia.
