Question
In one novel by an author born in this country, an anarchist becomes a Jesuit after the burning of an all-female hostel. A nun from this country authored the psychological treatise "The Transfiguration of the Commonplace" after ending an affair with a one-armed artist. This is the birth country of the novelist of The Girls of Slender Means, who created a set of schoolgirls dubbed the crème-de-la-crème by the (*) fascist-sympathizing teacher Miss Jean ("jeen") Brodie. In a novel from this birth country of Muriel Spark, the title character saves the Jewish nurse Rebecca from burning at the stake and is helped by the disguised Black Knight to marry Lady Rowena - that novel is Ivanhoe. For 10 points, name this home country of Robert Burns and Walter Scott. ■END■
