    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 135 (2005), 423–442THOMSON; TOMBSTONE LETTERING IN DUMFRIES AND GALLOWAY | 423 Research in inscriptional palaeography (RIP). Tombstone lettering in Dumfries and Galloway George Thomson* ABSTRACT A comprehensive and detailed survey was made of lettering on all accessible tombstone inscriptions in Dumfries and Galloway. Using statistical and other analytical techniques, a large amount of data was extracted. From this, comparisons were made with data from the author’s previous study of inscriptional lettering throughout Scotland. The distributions of a number of letterform attributes were mapped, in some instances revealing clear geographical trends. The interesting subregional groupings in Dumfries and Galloway identified in the initial national survey were confirmed when the comprehensive data were used, though the distinctions were not so clear-cut. The rise of three more or less distinct area profiles identified using 42 letterform attributes is likened to the development of a dialect or accent, not learned by imitation, but subconsciously acquired as a consequence of living in local divergent communities. INTRODUCTION for the study of local communities, traditions and tastes. Moreover, it can be used as a cultural Lettering on tombstones of the late and post- marker. This can be established through a medieval period is a subject that has been detailed investigation of specific lettering styles largely ignored until recently. The author (Thomson 2002) or by statistical analysis of data undertook a survey of gravestone lettering extracted from a range of seemingly abstruse throughout Scotland based on a sample of 132 attributes. The analysis of data based on 42 mainland burial sites (Thomson 2001a).

  • The Historicity of Barbour's Bruce
    The Historicity of Barbour's Bruce By JAMES HAND TAGGART School of Scottish Studies Faculty of Arts University of Glasgow A thesis submitted'to the University of Glasgow in May 2004 for the degreeof Doctor of Philosophy ii Acknowledgments Professor Geoffrey Barrow took time to discuss various aspects of Barbour's purpose in writing The Bruce. Professor Archie Duncan spent hours with me on several occasions. His knowledge of The Bruce is unsurpassed;he shared it most generously. He was patient when I questioned some of his conclusions about Barbour's work and its historicity. His edition of The Bruce, together with its extensivenotes, was invaluable for my analysis of Barbour. Drs. Sonia Cameron and Fiona Watson also gave generouslyof their time at crucial points. I am especially grateful to my supervisor, Professor Edward Cowan. He never failed to smile and brew up a coffee on the many occasionsI visited his room in the Department of Scottish History. He kept my enthusiasm going over a prolonged period, and helped to structure my work in a way that made the analyses more accessibleand the discussion more meaningful. He vigorously defendedme and my work against aggressive and unprofessional attack, and encouraged me to think rigorously at every point. I am glad, though, to observethat I finally convinced him that the carl of Carrick killed, but did not murder, the lord of Badenoch on 10 February 1306. Thanks for your guidanceand friendship, Ted. On a personal note, I am grateful to Fiona for starting me out on this journey, and to Mairi for sustaining me on the last few laps.

DUMFRIES: J. ANDERSON & SON. HODDER AND STOUGHTON, 27 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON, B.C. 1876. TO THE REV. DAVID OGILVY-RAMSAY OF WESTHALL. Rev. Sir. Admiring the catholic spirit, the zeal and unflagging attention, which you have shown in the performance of your duties since your appointment as Minister of Closeburn, I cannot refuse myself the pleasure of inscribing to you this small volume, as a mark of esteem and respect. It contains the Early History of the Parish over the spiritual interests of which you have been placed, and where I trust you may be long spared to labour in your holy calling. Believe me to remain, Rev. Sir, Your very sincere well-wisher and friend, CRAUFURD TATT RAMAGE. PREFACE. This small volume consists of an account of the Parishes of Durisdeer, Closeburn, and Morton, in Upper Niths- dale, which appeared in the Dumfries and Galloway Courier, with some scattered notices of Burns which I had recorded in the pages of Notes and Queries. As it is the result of considerable research, it has been thought proper to place it in a more permanent form than the pages of a weekly journal. An attempt has been made to bring together everything that could throw light on the early races that inhabited these parishes.
