  • French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830
    French Travellers to Scotland, 1780-1830: An Analysis of Some Travel Journals. Elizabeth Anne McFarlane Submitted according to regulations of University of Stirling January 2015 Abstract. This study examines the value of travellers’ written records of their trips with specific reference to the journals of five French travellers who visited Scotland between 1780 and 1830. The thesis argues that they contain material which demonstrates the merit of journals as historical documents. The themes chosen for scrutiny, life in the rural areas, agriculture, industry, transport and towns, are examined and assessed across the journals and against the social, economic and literary scene in France and Scotland. Through the evidence presented in the journals, the thesis explores aspects of the tourist experience of the Enlightenment and post - Enlightenment periods. The viewpoint of knowledgeable French Anglophiles and their receptiveness to Scottish influences, grants a perspective of the position of France in the economic, social and power structure of Europe and the New World vis-à-vis Scotland. The thesis adopts a narrow, focussed analysis of the journals which is compared and contrasted to a broad brush approach adopted in other studies. ii Dedication. For Angus, Mhairi and Brent, who are all scientists. iii Acknowledgements. I would like to thank my husband, Angus, and my daughter, Mhairi, for all the support over the many years it has taken to complete this thesis. I would like to mention in particular the help Angus gave me in the layout of the maps and the table. I would like to express my appreciation for the patience and perseverance of my supervisors and second supervisors over the years.

  • Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851
    Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851 Rosemary Hill Queen Mary, University of London Submitted for the degree of PhD March 2011 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis and submitted for the degree of PhD is my own. Rosemary Hill 2 Abstract The thesis concentrates on the work of fourteen antiquaries active in the period from the French Revolution to the Great Exhibition in England, Scotland and France. I have used a combination of the antiquaries’ published works, which cover, among other subjects, architecture, topography, costume history, Shakespeare and the history of furniture, alongside their private papers to develop an account of that lived engagement with the past which characterised the romantic period. It ends with the growing professionalistion and specialisation of historical studies in the mid-nineteenth century which left little room for the self-generating, essentially romantic antiquarian enterprise. In so far as this subject has been considered at all it has been in the context of what has come to be called ‘the invention of tradition’. It is true that the romantic engagement with history as narrative led to some elaboration of the facts, while the newness of the enterprise laid it open to mistakes. I have not ignored this. The restoration of the Bayeux Tapestry, the forged tartans of the Sobieski Stuarts and the creation of Shakespeare’s Birthplace are all considered. Overall, however, I have been concerned not to debunk but as it were to ‘rebunk’, to see the antiquaries in their historical context and, as far as possible, in their own terms.

Pittock Charles Edward Stuart In April 1746, as events at Culloden drifted away from the Jacobites, Lord Elcho called on his leader Charles to charge forward and save the day. When he failed to do so, and instead left the field, Elcho termed him « an Italian coward and a scoundrel» (Scott, p. 213; Ewald, 1875, II, p. 27-33), sometimes popularized as «There you go, you cowardly Italian». Elcho’s squadron of Lifeguard cavalry were one of the Jacobite army’s few crack units: their wealthy and arrogant commander had already loaned Charles Edward 1500 guineas, a loan that was never repaid: to Charles it was a wager on success, to Elcho a commercial transaction, as Frank McLynn (1988, p. 141) has argued. In April 1746, as events at Culloden drifted away from the Jacobites, a cornet in the Horse Guards noted that the Prince wanted to charge forward and save the day. Colonel O’Sullivan ordered Colonel O’Shea of Fitzjames’s (whose name did not appear in the 1984 Muster Roll) to take Charles to safety (Livingstone, 1984).

  • Exploring Representations of Early Modern German Women Book Collectors (1650-1780)
    CURATING THE COLLECTOR: EXPLORING REPRESENTATIONS OF EARLY MODERN GERMAN WOMEN BOOK COLLECTORS (1650-1780) BY KATHLEEN MARIE SMITH DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Mara R. Wade, Chair Associate Professor Laurie Johnson Associate Professor Stephanie Hilger Professor Carl Niekerk Professor Tom D. Kilton, Emeritus ABSTRACT This dissertation examines representations of book collecting by German women in the early modern period in order to explore the role of gender in this activity. Portrayals of book collectors in the modern and early modern eras offer examples of how this identity is constructed, particularly in the underlying assumptions and expectations that determine who is defined as a book collector and what criteria are used to shape that decision. In the case of four early modern women--Elisabeth Sophie Marie of Braunschweig-Lüneburg (1683-1767); Elisabeth Ernestine Antonie of Sachsen-Meiningen (1681-1766); Caroline of Ansbach (1683- 1737); and Wilhelmine of Bayreuth (1709-1758)--the act of collecting is depicted as essential to their social status and an integral part of their lives. Finally, in an in-depth case study of an early modern German woman who was a book collector, Sophie of Hanover (1630-1714), this study analyzes how she represented her collecting activities and textual interaction as well as how she is represented in other texts. The way in which these early modern German women were represented and represented themselves as collectors reveals a great deal about the position of women within wider networks concerning the exchange of texts and information.

    UDC 75.04 Вестник СПбГУ. Искусствоведение. 2020. Т. 10. Вып. 2 Stephano Torelli’s “Coronation Portrait of Catherine II”: Crowns as a Visual Formula of the Lands of the Russian Empire* E. A. Skvortcova Saint Petersburg State University, 7–9, Universitetskaya nab., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russian Federation For citation: Skvortcova, Ekaterina. “Stephano Torelli’s ‘Coronation Portrait of Catherine II’: Crowns as a Visual Formula of the Lands of the Russian Empire”. Vestnik of Saint Petersburg University. Arts 10, no. 2 (2020): 274–299. https://doi.org/10.21638/spbu15.2020.206 The “Coronation portrait of Catherine II” by Stephano Torelli introduces a new type of ico- nography of the Russian Empress in which she appears as a bearer of multiple (i. e. four) crowns. Whereas originally such a portrait type in European art served as a representation of the several titles of the ruler and correspondent lands joined in a personal union, it became a representation of the titles of Catherine II as the Russian Empress and tsarina of the conquered tsarstva of Kazan, Astrakhan and Siberia. The theme of titles and lands of the Empire had al- ready developed in 18th-century Russia in other forms (allegorical figures, coats-of-arms) and visual media (decorative painting and sculpture). Circa 10 examples collected here for the first time are set side by side with their European counterparts. Three types of representations of native and conquered territories emerged in which the very choice of particular titles and the place of their symbolic representation in composition accentuated different aspects in the con- cept of the Russian Empire.

  • Scottish Silver & Applied Arts (496) Lot
    Scottish Silver & Applied Arts (496) Wed, 16th Aug 2017, Edinburgh Lot 428 Estimate: £5000 - £7000 + Fees A FINE JACOBITE REVIVAL CARVED WOOD FRAME MID 19TH CENTURY the engraving showing the return of Bonnie Prince Charlie to Edinburgh after the Battle of Prestonpans, engraved by Francis Bacon after the painting by Thomas Duncan, signed in the margin, the heavily carved frame with a cresting of a plumed crown above a central figure of Charles Edward on horseback, draped with colours, canon, shields and including the dress targe presented to Prince Charles Edward Stuart by James, 3rd Duke of Perth, the corners with further clusters of arms and armour, the engraving flanked by bold Highland figures holding flags and standing on scrolls with carved crests in shields for the MacPhersons to the left and MacDonald to the right, the lower section with carved central Royal Standard flanked by oval portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart, further trophies of arms and various Scottish musical instruments Dimensions: 112 x 128cm (overall) Provenance: Formerly at Glentruim, with the MacPherson family by descent Note: Although the exact provenance and history of this commission is unknown, its long connection with the MacPherson family and the obvious iconography tells an interesting and important story. The frame dates firmly to the Jacobite/ Highland revival period when the turn in Scots' attitudes to being Scots meant that all parts of a family's history were re-evaluated and relics were not only brought out to display but new 'heritage' was created. It would appear that this frame falls into both camps.

  • Poland and Britain Connections
    Poland and Britain Connections http://www.collaborativelearning.org/britainpoland.pdf Poland and Britain - Connections This set of activities is currently developing as a response to racist behaviour towards Polish new arrivals in classrooms in rural areas where the presence of other ethnic groups is new and ignorance is shared by adults and children. The activities are designed to acquaint pupils with the connections that have been taking place since the twelfth century or earlier when Norman knights went crusading in Poland up to the time when after the invasions of Poland in 1939 many Polish soldiers, sailors and airmen came to Britain and made a significant contribution to the war effort. With help of colleagues in Poland I hope we can bring the history closer to the present, but I sense that we will be looking at historical sources which are still very controversial. Currently we have two (maybe three) activities in the pipeline: 1. A 'sort out the clues' activity to complete a timeline introducing events from Polish history (bottom of timeline) and events from joint Great Britain/Polish history (top of timeline). 2. An information/transformations activity introducing a class set and more of people, events, artefacts for sharing and researching. 3. A timeline and mapping activity along the lines of our Anglo Saxon dates activity where small groups study different periods of Polish history to research and present to the rest of the class. I must emphasise at this stage that the activities are tentative and we welcome your comments and suggestions. If you have Polish students or teachers in your school please ask them to help us.

During the Enlightenment, Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh, was called the “Athens of the north,”2 a tribute to the number of influential figures who lived or were educated there during the eighteenth century. Such famous and significant figures as David Hume, Andrew Carnegie, Alexander Graham Bell, Dr. David Livingstone, Sir Walter Scott, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were Scottish. Despite influence of Scotland’s famous progeny, the country is not known for its contributions to the sciences and the arts. Instead, the mention of Scotland brings to most minds such things as kilts, tartan, bagpipes, clanship, and other tourist images that were primarily Highland customs before the eighteenth century. This vision of a timeless Celtic Scotland is in opposition to the reality that existed before the eighteenth century.

  • The Impact of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion on British Identity In
    Answering the Pretender's Declaration: The Impact of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion on British Identity in Colonial Maryland and Pennsylvania Laura O’Friel A Capstone Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in History and General University Honors Professor Katharine Norris, Faculty Director American University May 2009 O’Friel 1 The fall of 1746 tested the fortitude of Reverend Thomas Cradock. An Anglican minister in Baltimore County, Maryland, Cradock found his loyalty to Britain in question. In the waning days of the Jacobite Rebellion, another Maryland Protestant accused him of drinking to the health of the Catholic Stuart Pretender, not the Protestant Hanoverian king. That November, Cradock responded by printing two of his sermons preached during the Rebellion, and in a long preface, he defended himself: “Thus considering myself as an Englishman, a Protestant, a Minister of a Protestant Church, forced me to show the sincere Joy I felt [at the Jacobite demise], and the hearty Abhorrence I had of a slavish Subjection either in Religion or Polity.”1 The levels of identity—first nation, faith, then clerical occupation—incrementally added legitimacy to his claim that he was not a Jacobite. He mentions the most important last. As an Anglican minister, he was tied directly to the security and prosperity of the British state, and equated treason toward the king as equal to blaspheming against God. 2 In this justification Cradock revealed two key aspects of colonial life. First, as a loyal British subject, Cradock could not support Catholicism or arbitrary government (specifically that of France).
