  • The Culture of Literature and Language in Medieval and Renaissance Scotland
    The Culture of Literature and Language in Medieval and Renaissance Scotland 15th International Conference on Medieval and Renaissance Scottish Literature and Language (ICMRSLL) University of Glasgow, Scotland, 25-28 July 2017 Draft list of speakers and abstracts Plenary Lectures: Prof. Alessandra Petrina (Università degli Studi di Padova), ‘From the Margins’ Prof. John J. McGavin (University of Southampton), ‘“Things Indifferent”? Performativity and Calderwood’s History of the Kirk’ Plenary Debate: ‘Literary Culture in Medieval and Renaissance Scotland: Perspectives and Patterns’ Speakers: Prof. Sally Mapstone (Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of St Andrews) and Prof. Roger Mason (University of St Andrews and President of the Scottish History Society) Plenary abstracts: Prof. Alessandra Petrina: ‘From the margins’ Sixteenth-century Scottish literature suffers from the superimposition of a European periodization that sorts ill with its historical circumstances, and from the centripetal force of the neighbouring Tudor culture. Thus, in the perception of literary historians, it is often reduced to a marginal phenomenon, that draws its force solely from its powers of receptivity and imitation. Yet, as Philip Sidney writes in his Apology for Poetry, imitation can be transformed into creative appropriation: ‘the diligent imitators of Tully and Demosthenes (most worthy to be imitated) did not so much keep Nizolian paper-books of their figures and phrases, as by attentive translation (as it were) devour them whole, and made them wholly theirs’. The often lamented marginal position of Scottish early modern literature was also the key to its insatiable exploration of continental models and its development of forms that had long exhausted their vitality in Italy or France.

Jacob Burckhardt’s notorious formulation of ‘The Development of the Individual’ and birth of subjectivity in trecento Italy, spreading north during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, has been largely discredited as a paradigm for describing historical and cultural change.1 Yet the fact remains that in fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Western Europe people started writing in different ways about themselves. Humanism, increased literacy, and confessional reform are among the factors usually cited as contributing to the appearance in the later sixteenth century of such recognisably autobiographical works as The Autobiography (1558-63) of Benvenuto Cellini and Michel de Montaigne’s Essays (publ. 1580, 1588, and 1595). But where can one look for earlier examples of ‘account[s] of a person’s life given by himself or herself’ with attention to literary form?2 The scholar’s usual This work was supported by AHRC Northern Bridge (grant number AH/L503927/1). 1Burckhardt, The Civilization of the Renaissance in Italy, trans.

This thesis examines literature that because of the frequency of its printing, and social relevance, might be called prevalent examples of a tradition. The strength of these traditions over time, and the way in which they reflect values of Lowland Scottish society are also examined. Vernacular literary tradition faced a period of crisis during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and its survival seemed uncertain. Its vitality, however, was reaffirmed mainly because it was able to evolve. The actions of several key individuals were instrumental in its maintenance, but ultimately, it was the strength of the traditions themselves which proved to be most influential.

  • Unlike His Uncle, Henry VIII, Or His Father-In-Law, Francis I, James V Of
    JAMES V AND BOOKS Unlike his uncle, Henry VIII, or his father-in-law, Francis I, James V of Scots has never had a reputation as a reader, book collector, or 'father of letters' .1 As his contemporaries saw it, James's chief interests (during the much briefer time of his reign) were less the 'clerkly' pursuits involving books than a variety of physical activities. Many of them were customary inclusions in the educational curriculum considered appropriate for royalty. Such were James's training in the martial arts (which, from the time he turned six, included riding practice, exercises with the sword, 'speris' [spears], 'culvering' [hand gun] and 'cors bow' [crossbow])2 and, later, his hunting and hawking.3 Others- those, for instance, glimpsed in the lines of some contemporary verses, where James is warned not to 'ryd orrin [run] ov[i]r rekleslie, I or slyde with ladis upoun the yce'4- are memorably unfitting to his position. Yet again they reveal his physical energy, as do further occasional references in the accounts, for instance to balls lost or needed by the king for his games of 'cachpuyll' [hand tennis].5 Musical skills were also a curriculum essential, but James's abilities and interests were sufficiently marked to be commented upon at the time. He not only sang in tune, it was said, but danced well, played the lute, perhaps also the viol, read music at sight, and delighted in hearing his own and foreign musicians perform.6 Much less can be discovered from contemporary sources about James's formal studies.

  • Medieval Scottish Poetry - British and Irish Literature - Oxford Bibliographies
    10/23/2017 Medieval Scottish Poetry - British and Irish Literature - Oxford Bibliographies Medieval Scottish Poetry Nicola Royan LAST MODIFIED: 27 SEPTEMBER 2017 DOI: 10.1093/OBO/9780199846719-0129 Introduction In the title “Medieval Scottish Poetry,” “poetry” is by far the least contentious term. The other two may each be defined in many different and incompatible ways, and together they pose different challenges. “Scottish” may refer to the geography, rather than to one specific language, while “medieval” can extend in Scottish contexts further into the 16th century than is usual in British or English accounts. This article will focus primarily on poetry written in Older Scots, between 1350 and 1513, but it will also gesture toward Scottish poetry in other languages, primarily Gaelic, and poetry written or transmitted before or after those dates. Most evidence for this poetry comes from the southeastern half of the country: poets can be associated with Moray, Aberdeen, Fife, Edinburgh and the Borders, and Ayrshire. Although some material is associated with the court, at least as much is associated with noble families. It is rare to find contemporary manuscripts for the poetry, for the main witnesses for many texts are 16th-century prints and miscellanies, such as the Asloan and Bannatyne Manuscripts. This suggests that the poetry retained its cultural value well into the early modern period and beyond. The earliest Older Scots poem surviving is John Barbour’s the Bruce, dated c. 1375, It narrates the exploits of Robert I and James Douglas during the First War of Independence (1295– 1314) for the benefit of the heroes’ descendants, Robert II and Archibald Douglas.

Indeed for later generations of Scot­ tish readers, Lindsay's name became a byword for reliability and truthful­ ness, at times even rivalling divine Scripture. Douglas Hamer, in his edi­ tion of The Monarche, recounts "the well-known story of the Scottish farmer, who, when on his death-bed, was asked if he would like the Bible read to him, to comfort his passing. He replied with some vigor, 'Hout awa' wi' your daft nonsense [the Bible!] bring me Davie Lindsay.'''l While enthusiasm for The Monarche has since dropped off dramatically, Lindsay is still often read too simply in terms of his didactic intent.
