Department of Vl\ S The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT From narrow partisan attacks on his political and religious views to more so• phisticated discussions of his mode of historical writing, British writers in the first half of the nineteenth-century responded in various ways to David Hume's History of Eng• land. The response to Hume's history represented both continuity and change. Nine• teenth-century writers introduced a new dimension to the discourse on Hume's history while continuing the political and religious controversies that began with the publica• tion of Hume's work in 1754.

  • Expeditions Summer 1973
    SCHOOLS HEBRIDEAN SOCIETY SOUTH RONA EXPEDITIONS SUMMER 1973 COLONSAY THE SCHOOLS HEBRIDEAN SOCIETY W as Born after an expedition to the island of Rhum organised by ten undergraduates and schoolboys in 1959. Has since 1960 successfully organised more than 40 expeditions to more than 20 different sites in the Hebrides and, lately, Shetlands. Is in 1973, mounting the expeditions shown on the opposite page and providing the opportunity for boys of all ages to experience an unusual and challenging situation. Believes that the beauty and remoteness of the Hebridean setting contributes toward the value derived from expeditions by the members. Provides the opportunity for boys to learn the techniques of climbing, walking and canoeing under the instruction of specialist officers. Encourages project work, depending upon the nature of the island—the study of ornithology usually features in every expedition. Provides tents, cooking and eating utensils, boats, canoes and climbing equipment— but each expedition builds its own furniture! Ensures that safety rules arc strictly adhered to it is always possible to obtain a doctor, even on the remotest islands. Limits the size of its expeditions to between twenty and thirty boys, with a Leader, a Camp Administrator and between six and nine officers. Welcomes all boys who are prepared to regard their expedition as something more than a "holiday” and work hard for its success. Proprietor: THE SCHOOLS HEBRIDEAN COMPANY LIMITED (Registered as a charity) COLONSAY EXPEDITION GROUP L 1973 (Age 12¾-14 years) In the southern part of the Inner Hebrides, Colonsay is a small island with a remarkably varied terrain which has proved eminently suitable for previous junior expeditions.

THOMSON, M.A. M a\ V e.>r , r\ I QUEEN OF SCOTS A NARRATIVE AND DEFENCE WITH PORTRAIT AND EIGHT ILLUSTRATIONS SPECIALLY DRAWN FOR THE WORK ABERDEEN THE UNIVERSITY PRESS I 889r 3,' TO THE MEMORY OF MARY MARTYR QUEEN OF SCOTS THE FOLLOWING PAGES ARE ebtcdfeb A PURE WOMAN, A FAITHFUL WIFE, A SOVEREIGN ENLIGHTENED BEYOND THE TUTORS OF HER AGE FOREWORD. effort is made in the few following AN pages to condense the reading of many years, and the conclusion drawn from almost all that has been written in defence and in defame of Mary Stuart. Long ago the world was at one as to the character of the Casket Letters. To these forgeries the writer thinks there must now be added that document discovered in the Charter Room of Dunrobin Castle by Dr. John Stuart. In that most important and deeply interesting find, recently made in a loft above the princely stables of Belvoir Castle, in a letter from Randolph to Rutland, of loth June, 1563, these words occur in writing about our Queen : "She is the fynneste she that ever was ". This deliberately expressed opinion of Thomas Randolph will, I hope, be the opinion of my readers. viii Foreword. The Author has neither loaded his page with long footnote extracts, nor enlarged his volume with ponderous glossarial or other appendices. To the pencil of Mr. J. G. Murray of Aber- deen, and the etching needle of M. Vaucanu of Paris, the little book is much beholden.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract. This thesis examines the influence of David Hume’s History of England during the century of its greatest popularity. It explores how far the long-term fortunes of Hume’s text matched his original aims for the work. Hume’s success in creating a classic popular narrative is demonstrated, but is contrasted with the History's failure to promote the polite ’coalition of parties’ he wished for. Whilst showing that Hume’s popularity contributed to tempering some of the teleological excesses of the ’whig version’ of English history, it is stressed that his work signally failed in dampening ’Whig’/ ’Tory’ conflict. Rather than provide a new frame of reference for British politics, as Hume had intended, the History was absorbed into national political culture as a ’Tory’ text - with important consequences for Hume’s general reputation as a thinker.

This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

  • Inventory of Pifirrane Writs 1230
    ^ Scottish Record Society, Edinburgh Scottish Record Society pgi'sl ,oj. J> I -^rroule. / Cut ^\ ( SCOTTISH RECORD SOCIETY ^ ^ no. (3-^ .. INVENTORY OF PITFIRRANE WRITS 1230-1794 EDITED BY WILLIAM ANGUS CURATOR OF HISTORICAL RECORDS, H.M. GENERAL REGISTKR HOUSE EDINBURGH: PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY BY J. SKINNER & COMPANY, LTD. 1932 PREFACE. THE Inventory of Pitfirrane Writs here printed is from a collection of Inventories of Titles presented to the Register House by the Trustees of the late Sir William Eraser, K.C.B., LL.D. The Trustees of the late Sir Peter Arthur Halket of Pitfirrane have kindly given their consent to its publication. Mr. Walter Macfarlane of that Ilk, the well-known antiquary, appears to have examined the Pitfirrane charter chest and to have made notes of its contents from which Sir Robert Douglas compiled his account of the family of Halket of Pitfirran for his Baronage of Scotland} . These notes are not in the Macfarlane Collection in the National Library of Scotland. The Inventory here printed bears to have been "prepared by W. Whytock" in 1834, but whether it is based on Macfarlane's work or not it is impossible to say. There can be no doubt that in the absence of a more com- plete Calendar it provides a key to a most interesting and extensive collection of charters which throws much light on various Fife families and lands. Mr. J. C. Gibson and the Rev.
