It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • An Excavation at the Bishop's House, Stow, Scottish Borders
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 130 (2000), 677–704 An excavation at the Bishop’s House, Stow, Scottish Borders Adrian Cox,* Piers Dixon** & Michael Parker† with contributions by Derek Hall, Dennis Gallagher & Dick Grove ABSTRACT During late 1984 and 1985, the Border Burghs Archaeology Project (BBAP) carried out an investigation of the ruins of the Bishop’s House at Stow, in the Scottish Borders (formerly Berwickshire), a site with historical associations with the bishops and archbishops of St Andrews and part of a long-established estate centre. The investigation revealed the layout of a 16th-century building, which was altered on at least two occasions. There is evidence of destruction by fire, and the western room of the house was subdivided near the end of its life, probably to accommodate livestock. In front of the house was an enclosed cobbled yard, below which was a broad ditch which may have been the old boundary of the bishop’s estate. The preparation and publication of this report were sponsored by Historic Scotland. INTRODUCTION The village of Stow lies on the south-eastern flank of the Scottish Southern Uplands about seven miles north-west of Galashiels (formerly in the old county of Berwickshire, now Scottish Borders) (illus 1). The village is situated on the east side of Gala Water, which joins the Tweed at Galashiels, and the parish of Stow occupied much of the Gala valley. Within the nucleus of the village, a concentration of buildings lies adjacent to the ruins of the Church of St Mary. Immediately east of and above the old church and churchyard lies the ruin which has been known for well over a century to the local inhabitants as the Bishop’s House and to the antiquarian writers as the Bishop’s Palace, because of the associations of the site with the bishops and archbishops of St Andrews.

  • The Witches' Sabbath in Scotland
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot 142 (2012), 371–412 THE WITches’ SABBATH IN SCOTLAND | 371 The Witches’ Sabbath in Scotland Laura Paterson* ABSTRACT There are ample surviving references in the witchcraft trial material to indicate that the witches’ sabbath became an important feature of the crime of witchcraft in Scotland. Comparison of the trial material has revealed numerous discrepancies between individual and group accounts of the witches’ sabbath. The frequent inability of the witches to agree upon a time, date or place that the witches’ sabbath took place have indicated that, in the cases studied, the witches’ sabbath was not a genuine historical event. Elite beliefs and ideas about the witches’ sabbath were frequently introduced during interrogations, and certainly left their mark upon the witchcraft records. However, the examination process was often a negotiation between witches and their interrogators, and as such, allowed many witches to incorporate their own beliefs and ideas into their descriptions of the witches’ sabbath. Close reading of the trial material, combined with an analysis of contemporary presbytery records and popular ballads, provides evidence that many witches were drawing upon popular beliefs about fairies, magic and the supernatural, as well as their experiences at real life celebrations and festivities, to compose their descriptions of the witches’ sabbath. The majority of confessions that contain descriptions of the witches’ sabbath are the product of this interrogation and negotiation process, but this research has also explored the possibility that the witches’ sabbath might have been a real visionary experience for some witches, and that these visionary experiences were fantasies induced by psychological trauma, or a waking or sleeping vision similar to those experienced by tribal shamans.

ADVERTISEMENT TO THE FIRST EDITION. Amid the numerous performances of this sort which have lately appeared, many have expressed their regret that no account of St Andrews should have been offered to the public. The city ap- peared to them deserving of more notice—the seat of the most ancient of the Scottish Univer- sities—the ecclesiastical capital of the kingdom for nearly a thousand years—the scene of not a few of the material transactions of its history, and a place frequently visited by the tourist and the curious. A Publication such as the present, therefore, seemed evidently wanted, and it was this consideration solely which induced the Au- thor to undertake the task. How far he has been successful in the execution of it, is not for him to judge.
