Jacobitism and the Creation of a Scottish National Identity

Historiography . 5-23 III. Historical Jacobitism . 24-39 IV. The End of Highland Life . 40-52 V. Highland Culture Revived . 53-73 VI.

Introduction Winston Churchill once claimed that “of all the small nations of this earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind.”1 Scotland has produced a plethora of important writers, philosophers, historians, and scientists. During the Enlightenment, Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh, was called the “Athens of the north,”2 a tribute to the number of influential figures who lived or were educated there during the eighteenth century. Such famous and significant figures as David Hume, Andrew Carnegie, Alexander Graham Bell, Dr. David Livingstone, Sir Walter Scott, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were Scottish. Despite influence of Scotland’s famous progeny, the country is not known for its contributions to the sciences and the arts. Instead, the mention of Scotland brings to most minds such things as kilts, tartan, bagpipes, clanship, and other tourist images that were primarily Highland customs before the eighteenth century. This vision of a timeless Celtic Scotland is in opposition to the reality that existed before the eighteenth century. -
