He applied to the E of Home for the loan of the set of V C iews in the library at Douglas astle , which was readily granted I on e or supplied two that were awanting , and he then had the whole reproduced by Messrs . Waterston of Edinburgh . Mr . Robert son r asked me to w ite an Introduction to the proj ected volume , and , I s w o. ith some hesitation , agreed to do He himself bestowed much time and pains in preparing descriptive explanations of the Views . Fou lis I had long been interested in the work of the Brothers , and had acquired some interesting Fou lis i tems at the sale of the f o of . libraries David Laing and John Whitefoord Mackenzie Mr . William James Duncan was an old friend and I applied to him for information as to the material he had in hand in the prepara tion of his Noti c es a n d Doc u men ts i llu stra ti ve of the Li ter a ry H i stor o Gla s ow of y f g , but at the lapse more than fifty years I he could not remember from whom he had obtained it . was fortunate , however , in obtaining access to the Buchan letters which Mr . Duncan had used , and to others which I think he had not seen I also picked up a number of Buchan papers which were in the ’ P . market , and some of rofessor Simson s correspondence I examined of the Minute Books of the Barbers Incorporation , the records the of of University , the register of deeds and the register testaments Commissari ot the of Glasgow , various manuscripts in the British Museum and in the Glasgow University library . From these and other sources I drew up an account of the Foulis Press and of the of ffi Glasgow Academy the Fine Arts , which seemed to be su cient for the purpose in view . Mr . Robertson was , however, anxious that v i PREFACE so as of i it should be extended , to include a history l terature , art , a s and science in Glasgow . This w a much more formidable under d i i . a v sa tak ng , and it made Slow progress I suggested to him the b ility of proceeding with what more immediately related to the of volume plates , as the larger proj ect would entail much delay . w as His fancy , however , for the latter , and I did my best to carry b u t it out , it was unfinished when he died , and my papers were then laid aside . It w a s hoped that the Earl of Rosebery would open the Fou lis Exhibition of the Glasgow Bibliographical Society , in April last , h is ‘ but Lordship found that he was unable to do so , and the duty i r du c tor . n t o v devolved upon me The time was short , and for an r Address I abridged the account which I had formerly w itten , and so i had it printed , that it might be distributed at the meet ng , but l n ot the i lustrations could not be got ready in time , and this was done . As the immediate occasion was past , it was thought that it might be more useful to restore what had been struck out , and the present paper is practically what was prepared fully five and twenty years ago . Certain details regarding the artists trained in the of Academy have been omitted , and advantage has been taken such additional information as has become ava ilable in the mean f of time . My aim has been to give a connected account o the work ou lis of ff Robert F as a printer , and his e orts to establish and carry on of the Academy of the Fine Arts , his surroundings , and of those with whom he was associated .

  • The Foulis Exhibition
    Downloaded from THE FOULIS EXHIBITION. (HOUGH constituted so recently as 21 st February, 1912, the Glasgow http://library.oxfordjournals.org/ 1 Bibliographical Society found itself (strong enough before the end of that year to organise an exhibition illustra- tive of the life and work of the brothers Foulis, the venture being suggested by the fa<5l that 23rd November, 1912, was the bicentenary of the birth of Andrew, the junior member of the firm. The exhibition was intended as the Society's at University of California, San Fransisco on March 16, 2015 tribute to two eminent sons of Glasgow who have been strangely neglected, and was made the occasion of an attempt to bring together material, manu- script and printed, that would ultimately be used in compiling an adequate biography of the brothers and a complete bibliography or their press. The authorities of the University of Glasgow readily granted the necessary accommodation, and on 12th April, before a Large gathering, the exhibi- tion was opened with an address on the Foulises by the President of the Society, Mr. David Murray, LL.D.1 That the exhibition should have been held in the University was appropriate on various grounds. 1 The address, illustrated and much extended, has been issued in Yolume form by Messrs. James MacLehose & Sons, Glasgow. THE FOULIS EXHIBITION. 307 The brothers, when young men, were more or less regular students in its classes.

  • 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
    Lamont, C. (2018) Cultivating the classics “in a cold climate”: the Foulis Press & Academy in Glasgow. Journal of the Edinburgh Bibliographical Society, 13, pp. 45-66. There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/167329/ Deposited on 20 August 2018 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Cultivating the classics “in a cold climate”: the Foulis Press & Academy in Glasgow Craig Lamont Robert (1707-1776) and Andrew Foulis (1712-1775) rose to prominence in Glasgow as booksellers and publishers under the mentorship of Francis Hutcheson (1694-1746), the so-called ‘Father of the Scottish Enlightenment.’1 Despite no major study of the brothers since David Murray’s Robert and Andrew Foulis and the Glasgow Press (1913), recent scholarship has identified their role in the production of classical texts during the Scottish Enlightenment.2 Following Philip Gaskell’s comprehensive Bibliography of the Foulis Press (1986), art historian George Fairfull-Smith has been the most active researcher of the Foulis brothers: organising an exhibition on the Foulis Press and Academy in 2001; publishing a companion text; and, more recently, tracing the Academy’s impact on the fine arts in Glasgow in The Wealth of a City, v. 1 (2010). 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.

Although contemporary Italian painting was not as prestigious as before, Rome was still the artistic centre of conti- nental Europe and attracted many artists eager to complete their training and to find patrons among the aristocrats on the Grand Tour. 1 As Presi- dent of the Royal Academy, Joshua Reynolds (1723–1792) stressed the importance of a stay in Italy to enable young painters to study the works of the Renaissance masters. 2 Not all English artists agreed with Reynolds; William Hogarth (1697–1764), for instance, staunchly opposed the idea of going abroad to copy and imitate foreign artists. 3 For Scottish painters, 1.

  • Francis Hutcheson (1694-1746) Was the First Major Philosopher of The
    Francis Hutcheson (1694-1746) was the first major philosopher of the Scottish Enlightenment, and one of the great thinkers in the history of British moral philosophy, influencing Hume, Kant, and his pupil Adam Smith. He firmly rejected the reductionist view, common then as now, that morality is nothing more than the prudent pursuit of self-interest, arguing in favour of a theory of a moral sense. The two texts presented here are the most eloquent expressions of this theory. The Reflections on our common systems of morality insists on the connection between moral philosophy and moral improvement, and was a preview of his first major work, the Inquiry of 1725. The lecture On the social nature of man, arguing against the psychological egoism of Hobbes, appears here in an English translation for the first time. Thomas Mautner's introduction and editorial apparatus provide a mass of new information, helping to give the reader a sense of the intellectual climate in which Hutcheson lived.
