Sir Walter Scott's Templar Construct

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. SIR WALTER SCOTT’S TEMPLAR CONSTRUCT – A STUDY OF CONTEMPORARY INFLUENCES ON HISTORICAL PERCEPTIONS. A THESIS PRESENTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY AT MASSEY UNIVERSITY, EXTRAMURAL, NEW ZEALAND. JANE HELEN WOODGER 2017 1 ABSTRACT Sir Walter Scott was a writer of historical fiction, but how accurate are his portrayals? The novels Ivanhoe and Talisman both feature Templars as the antagonists. Scott’s works display he had a fundamental knowledge of the Order and their fall. However, the novels are fiction, and the accuracy of some of the author’s depictions are questionable. As a result, the novels are more representative of events and thinking of the early nineteenth century than any other period. The main theme in both novels is the importance of unity and illustrating the destructive nature of any division. The protagonists unify under the banner of King Richard and the Templars pursue a course of independence. Scott’s works also helped to formulate notions of Scottish identity, Freemasonry (and their alleged forbearers the Templars) and Victorian behaviours. However, Scott’s image is only one of a long history of Templars featuring in literature over the centuries. Like Scott, the previous renditions of the Templars are more illustrations of the contemporary than historical accounts. One matter for unease in the early 1800s was religion and Catholic Emancipation.

Investigating Edinburgh Castle In many ways Edinburgh Castle has everything: a huge, forbidding presence, magnificent royal rooms, the priceless Honours of Scotland and Stone of Destiny, large numbers of weapons and grim prisons.

Symbolism and Ritual in the 17Th Century Scottish Parliament
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Symbolism and ritual in the seventeenth-century Scottish Parliament Alastair J. Mann (University of Stirling) Parliaments communicate with the people of their nations through a range of symbolic and ritualistic registers. The nature of symbolism and ceremony in the Scottish Parliament before the 1707 union with the parliament of England provides an interesting illustration of this communicative aspect.1 In particular seventeenth-century Scotland - an astonishingly traumatised place of political and religious strife – was home to a surprising reliance on rituals in spite of the atmosphere of conflict. In the last full century of this parliament’s long life, the impact of decades of revolution, warfare and economic collapse was even greater for Scotland than for England. Traditionally, in Scottish and English historiography, the woes of Scotland after 1603 are placed at the foot of government by absentee monarchy. Indeed although some seventeenth-century English contemporaries and modern English historians have reflected on the negative consequences of a Scottish King James VI becoming King James I of England in 1603, to be ruled by an experienced monarch was much less traumatic for England than was for Scotland the departure of the head of state from Edinburgh to London. After 1707 of course an absentee monarchy became an absentee parliament, but in the period 1603 to 1707 it is perhaps a surprise that so many of the traditional and medieval-based symbols of Parliament remained constant, if occasionally re-worked in changing circumstances.

Edinburgh, Scotland Edinburgh Is One of Europe’S Most Enchanting and Picturesque Cities Built Across 7 Hills and Overlook- Ing the Sea It Has Many a Story to Tell
Edinburgh, Scotland Edinburgh is one of Europe’s most enchanting and picturesque cities Built across 7 hills and overlook- ing the sea it has many a story to tell. From the Old Town jumble of medieval buildings stacked one against each other on the Royal Mile to the New Town Georgian grid like streets. This is a city of excitement and intrigue which is why it is so popular with tourists. Edinburgh’s nickname is ‘Auld Reekie’ which dates back to the times that living dwellings were heated with open fires. Thou- sands upon thousands of coal fires caused soot to accumulate in the city giving it its pet name. Edinburgh Old Town The entire city centre area that is found south of Princess Street. The old town section of Edinburgh is rather unique in its layout which is still typically medieval. It has many reformation era and other classi- cal buildings that have been preserved, and the area was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1995. The main road is the Royal Mile which has Edinburgh Castle at one end and the ruins of Holy- rood Abbey at the other. The Royal Mile forms a spine to the many narrow closes (alleyways) that lead downhill either side in a herringbone pattern and create easy shortcuts for people who are walking around the area. There are many large squares around the old town and each of these holds public buildings, such as St Giles Cathedral, Tron Kirk or the Supreme Courts. There are a number of other landmark locations here too, The Queen’s Edinburgh residence the Palace of Holyrood house, the royal museum of Scotland, the University of Edinburgh, and Surgeons hall.

Nollaig Chridheil Agus Bliadhna Mhath Ùr
The Saltire December 2017 Nollaig Chridheil agus Bliadhna Mhath Ùr Christmas is about to descend upon us yet again - as every shop and TV station advert in the land has been reminding us for weeks already! Meanwhile, the last society event for calendar year 2017 has been crossed off the list and all is well with the world! (Well, it isn't, but you know what I mean!) It has been a busy year for the society. In an effort to boost numbers and find out what people want to do, we have held no less than TWENTY SEVEN events! We owe the committee in particular, but also the loyal band of followers that always seems to turn up and support us, a tremendous vote of thanks. We will do that properly at the AGM! All that effort has boosted numbers a little, although not as much as we hoped, and in the process, we have learned a fair bit about what people want and don't want to do, all of which I imagine will be taken into account by next year's committee, when the time comes to plan, what I imagine will be a much slimmed down events list for 2018. Some dates for your calendar: Friday 12 January 2018 - 1st pre-Burns Supper dance practice. Friday 19 January 2018 - 2nd pre-Burns Supper dance practice. Thursday 25 January 2018 - Burns Supper. Friday 16 February 2018 - Annual General meeting. Further details of all these events appear on our website as they become available.

The Stone of Destiny at the United Nations
The Scotland-UN Committee The Stone of Destiny at the United Nations During the spring of 1981 it was brought to the Scotland-UN Committee's attention that the United Nations Educational Social and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) had set up a special committee to promote the return of objects of national cultural interest to their home countries. The moving spirit behind it was President Mobutu of Zaire, who in October 1973 had held an impassioned speech before the UN General Assembly in New York demanding the return of the works of art and objects of national importance that had been looted from Africa and other parts of the world during the colonial period. The committee consisted of 20 members, nominated by their governments. Its chairman at the time was Salah Stétié, a cultured Lebanese diplomat and writer. The object of the committee was to overcome the legal and chauvinist hurdles that prevent the return of objects such as the famous Mask of Benim to their native lands, the condition being that they must be objects of fundamental cultural significance, and have been removed in the course of colonial or other foreign occupation, or as a result of illegal export. The opportunity was too good to miss, and the Stone of Destiny was the obvious subject. The snag was that the committee was there to negotiate between governments, and not between governments and representatives of nations within composite states. It was perfectly clear from the start, therefore, that the chances of having the Westminster stone returned by this method were precisely nil, in a legal sense.

Teaching About Scotland
Fiona Ross – FindYourFeet.de Teaching about Scotland This is one of a series of units for teaching about Scotland in German Secon- dary schools. All the materials were created by very motivated students in my Area Studies Scotland class, some with experience of teaching in a “Gymna- sium“. The materials can be tried out as they are, or altered as desired. They can also be combined. One basic idea behind them all is that both the teacher and the learners can develop the materials themselves, according to their own interests, and then even offer them to another class. For some of these units printed information material is needed, for example ferry timetables, but if you don’t have this, it is no problem to print it out from the Internet. Useful websites are given. Symbols of Scotland Target group and Aim. The unit is intended for pupils in higher classes of a German secondary school, with a fairly good command of English, and covers two lessons (90 minutes). The aim is two-fold: to teach more about Scotland within the frame- work of an Area Studies Scotland project, and to make young people more aware of symbols in shaping national identity. I would budget for at least an hour, one and a half would be preferable. The unit was created by Sabine Vogt Sprachlehrinstitut, Universität Konstanz Summer term 2006 Course: Area Studies Scotland Introduction Why would it be a good idea to teach something like the symbols of Scotland in the 11th or 12th grade? First of all, it could be fun! When I first went to Scotland, I became aware of the colourful flags, then saw the lovely purple thistle symbol everywhere and 1 Fiona Ross – FindYourFeet.de gradually found more and more symbols: heather, tartan, the kilt, the bagpip- ges, sheep, Nessie, William Wallace and so on.
