Abstract:
ABSTRACTIn his 1720 poem ‘To the Musick Club’ Allan Ramsay famously called upon an incipient Edinburgh Musical Society to elevate Scottish vernacular music by mixing it with ‘Correlli's soft Italian Song’, a metonym for pan-European art music. The Society's ensuing role in the gentrification of Scottish music – and the status of the blended music within the wider contexts of the Scottish Enlightenment and the forging of Scottish national identity – has received attention in recent scholarship. This article approaches the commingling of vernacular and pan-European music from an alternative pers

Abstract:
In the early nineteenth century thousands of Scots emigrated to Nova Scotia, Canada, settling there principally in Pictou and Antigonish Counties. This article considers the transformation of the domestic architecture of emigrants from the Scottish Highlands, from earth and random-rubble-walled ‘black houses’ to Classically ornamented and proportioned timber-framed houses. It demonstrates that, in contrast to the transferable traditions of Lowland Scottish settlers, virtually no element of the Scottish Highland vernacular building tradition was established in Nova Scotia, and that Scottish Hig

Abstract:
This article examines the Scottish missionary contribution to a Scottish sense of empire in India in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Initially, the article reviews general historiographical interpretations which have in recent years been developed to explain the Scottish relationship with British imperial development in India. Subsequently the article analyses in detail the religious contributions of Scottish Presbyterian missionaries of the Church of Scotland and the Free Church Missions to a Scottish sense of empire with a focus on their interaction with Hindu socioreligious th

Abstract:
The Buildings at Risk Register for Scotland provides information on around 1250 buildings of architectural or historic merit that are considered to be at risk. Ranging from large baronial castles to small vernacular farmhouses, or from former factories to redundant churches, all represent considerable restoration opportunities. Established in 1990 by the Scottish Civic Trust on behalf of Historic Scotland, the Register was the first of its kind in the UK and is now emulated nationally. In April 2004, the Scottish Civic Trust embarked upon an exciting new chapter with the launch of www.building

Abstract:
In 1563, witchcraft was established as a secular crime in Scotland and it remained so until 1736. There were peaks and valleys in the cases that emerged, were prosecuted, were convicted, and where people were executed for the crime of witchcraft, although there was a decline in cases after 1662. The Scottish Enlightenment is characterized as a period of transition and epistemological challenge and it roughly coincides with this decline in Scottish witchcraft cases. This article looks at pamphlets published in the vernacular between 1697 and 1705, either within Scotland or elsewhere, that focus

While Welsh is an integral part of a broader literary tradition of the contemporary urban Scottish novel, which blends together the crime novel genre with the localised concerns of post-industrialism, gripping poverty, Thatcherite austerity, substance abuse and nagging questions of Scottish identity (gender, sexuality, class, nationhood, etc.), his depictions of th

The National Museums Scotland collections include clothes and textiles recovered from Scottish peat bogs, examples which are revealing of vernacular, non-elite dress in Scotland. One of these sets, the clothes recovered from peat moss at Quintfall Hill on the Barrock Estate, near Keiss, Caithness and dating from the late seventeenth century are the subject of this article. Although reported in some detail after their discovery in 1920, very little further consideration was given to these clothes.

The decades before the Scottish Reformation Parliament of 1560 witnessed the unprecedented use of a range of different media to disseminate the Protestant message and to shape beliefs and attitudes. By placing these works within their historical context, this thesis explores the ways in which various media – academic discourse, courtly entertainments, printed poetry, public performances, preaching and pedagogical tools – were employed by evangelical and Protestant reformers to persuade and/or educate different audiences within sixteenth-century Scottish society.

Abstract This chapter traces the development of Catholicism in Welsh, Irish Gaelic, and Scottish Gaelic vernacular literature. In Ireland, the outbreak of hostilities in 1641 dealt a major blow to the catechetical, hagiographical, and historical projects of the Irish Franciscans in Leuven, leading to a petering out of their influential publishing programme. The chapter explores Irish responses to major events, such as the Confederate Wars and the rise of Jacobitism, in Gaelic literature in the period, and how these events featured in literary representations of Ireland’s past, present, and fut

Abstract:
Burton is shown to exhibit a number of recurring themes in his perception of Scottish history. He gives particular attention to the curious and bizarre often as revealed in early vernacular sources which he draws on to recount their ‘weird’ stories. This extends at times to a morbid interest in rather horrific and murderous scenes. Overlaying both is a fascination with superstitions and supernatural interventions. Finally, there appears a recurrent theme of virtue seduced and overthrown, and society suborned by ‘demonic’ figures who exert their baleful influence while remaining in one way or a

Abstract:
Having recounted the difficulty English television audiences had in understanding the Glasgow vernacular of the Scottish television series Rab C. Nesbitt, the essay proposes that it exemplifies Scots cultural critics’ account of the extent to which culture supplanted politics to deliver ‘the Scottish voice’ following the failure of the 1979 referendum on Scottish independence. Extending the discussion into Scottish body language and Scottish screen acting, the essay demonstrates the melding of High and Low culture and the considerable artistic quality of two episodes from the series.
