The Scottish Historical Review
The Scottish Historical Review VOL. XIV., No. 54 JANUARY 1917 Some Letters of Robert Foulis noble array of books issued from the press of Robert THEFoulis, and of his firm of R. and A. Foulis, is a worthy memorial of his skill and taste as a printer, of his eager desire to promote learning and to diffuse a taste for literature. We have, however, comparatively little information regarding himself and the incidents of his life, and anything which supplements this information is welcome. The following letters tell something of his story, and will be read with interest. The first four are in the of G. Burnett of the possession Mr. J. Powis House, Aberdeen ; other two are in my own possession. The earliest letter is addressed to Lord Aberdour, 1732-74, afterwards (1768) fourteenth Earl of Morton, who was a student at the University of Leyden, under the charge of Mr. John Leslie, 1727-90, subsequently professor of Greek in King's College, Aberdeen, of whom Mr. Burnett gave a sympathetic account in this Review (S.H.R. xiii. 30). Lord Aberdour had been a student at the University of Glasgow during the years 1748 and 1749. The Messrs. Foulis, it will be remembered, were booksellers as well as printers and publishers, and their bookshop was a pleasant lounge, in which professors and students were accustomed to meet, dally with the books, talk over the topics of the day, and discuss questions of philosophy with the printer, criticise his most recent publications, and canvass his pro- posals for the future. -
Cultivating the Classics “In a Cold Climate”: the Foulis Press & Academy in Glasgow

Yet problems remain with our understanding of the brothers. This is mostly due to the commonplace narrative of their rise and fall as printers: talented in the art of publishing but distracted by an overambitious scheme of becoming connoisseurs of the fine arts in a city with no appetite for it.3 The persistence of this story had led to the scholarly focus on the Foulis press 1 This epithet has been given to Hutcheson by many, as early as 1900 in William Robert Scott’s Francis Hutcheson: His Life, Teaching and Position in the History of Philosophy (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1900), p. -
