The Massacre of Glencoe. At five o’clock in the morning on the 13th of February 1692, as a blizzard howled down from the rugged peaks of the Aonach Eagach, redcoat soldiers from the Duke of Argyll’s regiment awoke, dressed and began an indiscriminate slaughter of their hosts, the MacDonalds of Glencoe. Up and down the glen shots rang out in the darkness; some where killed in their beds, others while fleeing from the carnage, while others still would be lost among the mountains and die of exposure. It was sudden, unexpected and swift. In the morning 38 men, women and children lay dead in the snow; among them the chief of the clan, Alasdair MacIain and his wife. The massacre bore all the hallmarks of a clan vendetta, part of the long standing feud between the MacDonalds and the Campbells. This is what the government wanted people to believe, this was the official line; but, the truth ran much deeper and the causes and blames reached to the highest offices in the land. The Massacre of Glencoe came against the backdrop of civil war in the British Isles. Two rival dynasties vied for the throne in far off London; but the fighting, the repercussions and the bloodshed would be felt most in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. King James VII of Scotland and II of England was a poor king by any standard: hot-headed, naïve, politically callous and worst of all for many, an adherent to the Catholic faith. When in 1688 his wife gave birth to a son, assuring the Catholic succession he was ousted in a bloodless coup by the English establishment. Parliament then offered the English throne to his nephew (and son-in-law), William of Orange, the Stadholder of Holland. James fled to France and William landed and was proclaimed without resistance. In Scotland the situation was more complicated. James was a Stuart, the native dynasty of Scotland and both he and his family enjoyed far more support here. The Scottish Parliament was split, but in 1689 it also agreed to exile James and invite William to be king of Scotland as well.

  • Trish Reid, Theatre & Scotland (Houndmills
    Ian Brown, editor, The Edinburgh Companion to Scottish Drama (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2011); Trish Reid, Theatre & Scotland (Houndmills: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013) Alan Riach What might be described as the conventional wisdom about Scottish drama is summed up in the first two sentences of chapter 10 of Marshall Walker’s book, Scottish Literature since 1707 (1996): ‘There is no paucity of Scottish theatrical heritage, but there is a shortage of durable Scottish plays. Drama is the genre in which Scottish writers have shown least distinction.’ It is a judgement that has been perpetuated over generations but only relatively recently has the necessary scholarship and engagement been advanced, by both academics and theatre practitioners, to interrogate the assumptions that lie behind it. Walker refers to ‘the circumstances of theatrical history’ and questions of suppression and censorship, the Reformation, the removal of the court to London in 1603, the Licensing Act of 1737, and concludes his introduction to the chapter by saying that despite familiar references to Allan Ramsay, John Home, Joanna Baillie, and the vitality of folk, music-hall and variety theatre, nothing much happens between Sir David Lyndsay in the sixteenth century and the ‘return’ of Scottish drama in the twentieth century. Most of his chapter then goes on to discuss incisively and refreshingly the achievements of J.M. Barrie, James Bridie and John McGrath but the context he sketches out is barren. As a summary, there is some brutal truth in this, but as an appraisal of the whole complex story, there is much more to be said, and much more has been discovered and made public in the decades since Walker’s book appeared.

Distance and Contact Zones in the St Kilda Movies Philippe Laplace The pampered native of St Kilda may with reason refuse to change his situation; finding his amusement where his chief occupation lies, in the pursuit of sea fowl, that constitute at the same time his game, his luxury, and a considerable part of his wealth. Free from the reputed evils of law, physic, politics, and taxes; living under a patriarchal government, among a social circle of his relations; in a mild climate, without knowledge of a higher state of things; if he thinks not his island an Utopia, the pursuit of happiness is indeed a dream. (MacCulloch, 1819, pp. 29–30) 1 What I want to consider in this article is the way the Hebridean archipelago of St Kilda and its inhabitants were described in the only two fictional films ever made about life in these islands, in spite of a large number of documentaries.
