Desire for Perpetuation: Fairy Writing and Re-creation of National Identity in the Narratives of Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang Yuki Yoshino A Thesis Submitted to The University of Edinburgh for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that ‘fairy writing’ in the nineteenth-century Scottish literature serves as a peculiar site which accommodates various, often ambiguous and subversive, responses to the processes of constructing new national identities occurring in, and outwith, post-union Scotland. It contends that a pathetic sense of loss, emptiness and absence, together with strong preoccupations with the land, and a desire to perpetuate the nation which has become state-less, commonly underpin the wide variety of fairy writings by Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang. -

The author's aim has been simply to give an account, short but as far as possible complete, of three Dominicans who laid down their lives for the Faith in Great Britain. The name of one of these is already on the list of those English Martyrs who have been declared Venerable : will it be too much to hope that the following pages may lead towards the Beatification of all three? In every country and in every age the white habit of Saint Dominic has been decked with the blood of Martyrs; and it is but natural for us to wish that due honour may be paid to those of our own nation, who for God's sake gave up their bodies to sufferings and to death itself. -
MOORE, JOSEPH S., Ph.D. Irish Radicals, Southern Conservatives: Slavery, Religious Liberty and the Presbyterian Fringe in the Atlantic World, 1637-1877
MOORE, JOSEPH S., Ph.D. Irish Radicals, Southern Conservatives: Slavery, Religious Liberty and the Presbyterian Fringe in the Atlantic World, 1637-1877. (2011) Directed by Robert M. Calhoon. pp. 488 This dissertation is a study of Covenanter and Seceder Presbyterians in Scotland, Ireland and the American South from 1637-1877. Correspondence, diaries, political pamphlets, religious tracts, and church disciplinary records are used to understand the cultural sensibility, called herein the Covenanter sensibility, of the Covenanter movement. The dissertation examines how the sensibility was maintained and transformed by experiences such as the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, the Glorious Revolution, the 1798 Irish Rebellion, the American Civil War, and Reconstruction. Critical issues involved are the nature of religious and political culture, the role of moderation and religious extremism, the nature of Protestant primitivsm and church discipline, and the political nature of radical Protestant religion. This dissertation looks at Covenanter movements broadly and eschews an organiZational history in favor of examining political and religious culture. It labels the broad groups within the Covenanter movement the Presbyterian fringe. In Scotland, the study examines Covenanter ideology, society, church discipline, cell group networks of praying societies, issues of legal toleration and religious liberty, the birth of the Seceder movement and anti-slavery rhetoric. In Ireland it examines the contested legal role of Presbyterian marriages, the controversial arrival of Seceders in Ireland, as well as Covenanters’ involvement in the Volunteer movement, the United Irishmen, and the 1798 Irish Rebellion. In America it studies the life of John Hemphill, the retention of exclusive psalm singing and primitive Protestantism, the American ColoniZation society in South Carolina, interracial religious transfers, and Reconstruction. -

Civil Reformations: Religion in Dundee and Haddington C.1520-1565 Abstract ABSTRACT CIVIL REFORMATIONS: RELIGION IN DUNDEE AND HADDINGTON, C.1520-1565 Timothy Slonosky Prof. Margo Todd In 1559-60, Scotland's Catholic church was dramatically and rapidly replaced by a rigorous Protestant regime. Despite their limited resources, the Protestant nobles who imposed the Reformation faced little resistance or dissent from the Scottish laity. A study of burgh records demonstrates that the nature of urban religion was crucial to the success of the Reformation among the laity. The municipal governments of Dundee and Haddington exercised significant control over religious worship in their towns, as they built and administered churches, hired clergy and provided divine worship as a public good. Up until 1560, the town councils fulfilled their esponsibilitiesr diligently, maintaining good relations with the clergy, ensuring high standards of service and looking for opportunities to expand public worship. The towns nonetheless acted to protect those who were interested in discussing religious reform. -
The Inquisition and the Commedia Dell'arte
Platform, Vol. 7, No. 1, On Corporeality, Spring 2013 Corporeality and Subversion in Post-Renaissance Italy: The Inquisition and the Commedia dell’Arte By Matt Cawson Abstract This article explores the links between the emergence of the commedia dell’arte and the Holy Roman Inquisition, examining the historical and theological context of anti-corporeality within Catholic doctrine. I begin by identifying the philosophical background to Cartesian dualism, establishing it in the pre- Socratic tradition of Orphism and Pythagoreanism and argue that the real impact of body-mind dualism on the common man came not from theological or philosophical enquiry, but from the anti- corporeal doctrine of the Inquisition. I argue that the commedia dell’arte emerged as a reaction against this anti-corporealism and within its form, particularly through the mask, embodied deeply anathematic, fundamentally heretical principles. Its impunity from Inquisitorial persecution lay in exactly that which made it anathema: the mask and the body. Its avoidance of the written word beyond innocuous scenarios, its emphasis on improvisation, physicality and the pantomimic virtuosity of its performers, made censorship almost impossible. I explore the Church’s attitudes towards the mask as demonic and identify within the masks the key cardinal vices, particularly Pride and Covetousness which, according to theologian Thomas Aquinas, are the very roots of heresy. I suggest that the commedia dell’arte rendered corporeality the very locus of potential criticality and subversion within pre- Enlightenment Italy. In writing about the mask, much focus is given to the centrality of the body and as such the mask and corporeality would seem a natural, even obvious, topic. -
The Spirituali Movement in Scotland Before the Reformation of 1560 D
Scottish Reformation Society Historical Journal, 8 (2018), 1-43 ISSN 2045-4570 The spirituali movement in Scotland before the Reformation of 1560 D. W. B. Somerset 1. Introduction he spirituali were members of the Church of Rome in Italy in the Tearlier sixteenth century who held Lutheran or semi-Lutheran views on the doctrine of justifcation by faith but who remained within the bounds of Romanism. Te spirituali movement was a broad one, ranging from crypto-Protestants or Nicodemites,1 at one extreme, to those who believed in the sacrifce of the mass and who were ready to persecute Protestants, at the other. Te movement was strong in the 1530s and 1540s and included several cardinals such as Fregoso, Contarini, Sadoleto, Bembo, Seripando, Pole, and Morone. Twice (Pole in 1549 and Morone in 1565), a spirituali cardinal was almost elected as Pope. Te spirituali movement was bitterly opposed by the zelanti in the Church of Rome; and the setting up of the Roman Inquisition in 1542 was partly aimed at the suppression of the spirituali. Te foremost zelanti were Carafa, who was Pope Paul IV from 1555 to 1559, and Michele Ghislieri, who was Pope Pius V from 1566 to 1572.2 1. Te term ‘Nicodemite’ was introduced by Calvin to describe those of Protestant beliefs in France and Italy in the 1540s who chose to remain in the Church of Rome to avoid persecution; see C. M. N. Eire, War Against the Idols, (Cambridge, 1986), p. 236. Similar conduct was found soon aferwards in Germany (following the Augsburg Interim of 1548) and in England (during the reign of Mary I, 1553-58). -
THE ART of MUSIC in GB-Lbl Add. MS 4911: a CASE for ROBERT CARVOR AS the ANONYMOUS SCOT
ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: THE ART OF MUSIC IN GB-Lbl Add. MS 4911: A CASE FOR ROBERT CARVOR AS THE ANONYMOUS SCOT Debra Marion Livant Nakos, Master of Arts, 2020 Thesis directed by: Professor Barbara H. Haggh-Huglo Department of Music GB-Lbl Add. MS 4911, the sole source of an anonymous music treatise, The Art of Music, is among the few manuscripts to have survived the Scottish Reformation. In answer to the puzzle of its authorship, masters of song schools in Edinburgh or Aberdeen have been proposed. A new reading of the text places the date of its creation between 1559 and 1567 and leads to a revised profile of the author, which, as is demonstrated here, the Scottish composer Robert Carvor (1487/8 – c. 1568) uniquely matches. Further supporting Carvor as the author of the treatise is its inclusion of a section of Carvor’s Missa L’homme armé and of a caricature strikingly similar to one found in the Carvor Choirbook (GB-En MS Adv. 5.1.15), where Carvor’s compositions bear his signature. An Appendix includes the first English translation of the rules of faburden, which are unique to The Art of Music (f.94r-f.112r). THE ART OF MUSIC IN GB-Lbl Add.
