  • The Ballads and Songs of Ayrshire
    LIBRARY OF THE University of California. Class VZQlo ' i" /// s Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2007 with funding from Microsoft Corporation http://www.archive.org/details/balladssongsofayOOpaterich THE BALLADS AND SONGS OF AYRSHIRE, ILLUSTRATED WITH SKETCHES, HISTORICAL, TRADITIONAL, NARRATIVE AND BIOGRAPHICAL. Old King Coul was a merry old soul, And a jolly old soul was he ; Old King Coul he had a brown bowl, And they brought him in fiddlers three. EDINBURGH: THOMAS G. STEVENSON, HISTORICAL AND ANTIQUARIAN BOOKSELLER, 87 PRINCES STREET. MDCCCXLVII. — ; — CFTMS IVCRSI1 c INTRODUCTION. Renfrewshire has her Harp—why not Ayrshire her Lyre ? The land that gave birth to Burns may well claim the distinction of a separate Re- pository for the Ballads and Songs which belong to it. In this, the First Series, it has been the chief object of the Editor to gather together the older lyrical productions connected with the county, intermixed with a slight sprinkling of the more recent, by way of lightsome variation. The aim of the work is to collect those pieces, ancient and modern, which, scattered throughout various publications, are inaccessible to many readers ; and to glean from, oral recitation the floating relics of a former age that still exist in living remembrance, as well as to supply such in- formation respecting the subject or author as maybe deemed interesting. The songs of Burns—save, perhaps, a few of the more rare—having been already collected in numerous editions, and consequently well known, will form no part of the Repository. In distinguishing the Ballads and Songs of Ayrshire, the Editor has been, and will be, guided by the connec- tion they have with the district, either as to the author or subject ; and now that the First Series is before the public, he trusts that, whatever may be its defects, the credit at least will be given Jiim of aiming, how- ever feebly, at the construction of a lasting monument of the lyrical literature of Ayrshire.

  • The Lowland Clearances As Seen in Archaeology
    The Lowland Clearances as seen in archaeology Tam Ward 2012 The Lowland Clearances as seen in archaeology PAGE 1 Summary Survey and excavation projects on south of Scotland upland farms of the 17th and 18th centuries has revealed the archaeological evidence for widespread clearance of populations in the areas of the Upper Clyde and Tweed rivers Introduction Since 1981 the local voluntary archaeologists from Biggar have been involved in archaeological fieldwork in Upper Clydesdale and Upper Tweeddale and in the Southern Uplands of Scotland (Pl 1). The work has involved extensive survey and excavation programmes on a variety of site types and periods and in particular on post medieval settlements. Principally because the area of the Southern Uplands is one where development until recent times has had minimal impact on the landscape, a remarkable legacy of archaeology has survived as both visible and buried sites and monuments. This short paper introduces one aspect of the work concerning upland settlement in the area during the 17th and 18th centuries (Ward, 1998), and presents what is believed to be the first archaeological evidence for the depopulation of the rural landscape in the mid 18th century. Plate 1: Map of BAG Project Area The Lowland Clearances as seen in archaeology PAGE 2 Survey During the search for bastle houses (Figs 1 & 2) an The survey of a large tract of landscape (Pl 1) in the astounding previously unrecorded palimpsest of sites two areas considered here was a consequence of a and monuments has now been discovered and which gradual development of local knowledge, stimulated by make up the thirty year history of the work of Biggar the realisation that many previously unrecorded sites Archaeology Group.

  • 1 Sarah Sharp Exporting 'The Cotter's Saturday Night': Robert Burns
    1 Sarah Sharp Exporting ‘The Cotter’s Saturday Night’: Robert Burns, Scottish Romantic Nationalism and Colonial Settler Identity Abstract: A Scottish literary icon of the nineteenth century, Burns’s ‘The Cotter’s Saturday Night’ was a key component of the cultural baggage carried by emigrant Scots seeking a new life abroad. The myth of the thrifty, humble and pious Scottish cottager is a recurrent figure in Scottish colonial writing whether that cottage is situated in the South African veld or the Otago bush. This article examines the way in which Burns’s cotter informed the myth of the self-sufficient Scottish peasant in the poetry of John Barr and Thomas Pringle. It will argue that, just as ‘The Cotter’ could be used to reinforce a particular set of ideas about Scottish identity at home, Scottish settlers used Burns’s poem to respond to and cement new identities abroad. Keywords: Scottish Romanticism, Settler Colonialism, Robert Burns, Thomas Pringle, John Barr, John Wilson. 2 Exporting ‘The Cotter’s Saturday Night’: Robert Burns, Scottish Romantic Nationalism and Colonial Settler Identity. In 1787, reviewer John Logan commented of Robert Burns’s Kilmarnock edition that ‘“The Cotter’s Saturday Night” is, without exception, the best poem in the collection’.1 His opinion was echoed by many contemporary and subsequent reviewers. In 1812 George Gleig was able to confidently assert that ‘The “Saturday Night” is indeed universally felt as the most interesting of all the author’s poems’ (Bold, 217). This view of Burns’s poem of common life has not endured. The image of Scotland presented in the poem has become at best a stereotype and at worst a source of cultural cringe.

Huntley Dean, Cratis Williams Graduate School Copyright by Joshua David Clark Haddix 2013 All Rights Reserved Abstract AGRARIAN REFORM AND AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT IN LOWLAND SCOTLAND, 1750-1850 Joshua David Clark Haddix B.A., University of Cincinnati M.A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Dr. Michael Turner Lowland Scotland underwent massive changes between 1750 and 1850. Agrarian improvement and land enclosure changed the way Scottish farmers and laborers used and thought about the land. This, in turn, had a major impact on industrialization, urbanization, and emigration. Predominantly, those in charge of implementing these wide-reaching changes were middle-class tenant farmers seeking to improve their social status. The power of these estate partitioners, or overseers, increased in the Lowlands throughout the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. They were integral to the improvement process in the Lowlands. They often saw both sides of agrarian reform, documenting it as such. By 1850, Lowland Scotland was one of the most industrialized and enlightened sectors of Europe; a century earlier it had been one of the least.

  • The Highland Clearances | University of Glasgow
    09/25/21 The Highland Clearances | University of Glasgow The Highland Clearances View Online The Highland Clearances are regarded as a landmark in Scottish history. The controversy they inspired in their own day has continued into the present, particularly in the Highlands and Islands themselves, where the legacy is still immediate and bitter. Historiographically, there is a stark division between ‘popular’ condemnation of landlord action, and ‘academic’ emphases upon impersonal yet inescapable economic and demographic forces. Yet whether ‘popular’ or ‘academic’, conventionally the debate has been set within a political and economic framework which sees the Clearances as a particular local variation on the themes of the transition from subsistence to capitalism, the forging of class identity, and class confrontation. This course will seek to avoid conventional approaches to the Highland Clearances. Instead, the focus will be upon ideologies: the intellectual, cultural and religious systems of belief which, we shall argue, were vital in shaping the process of political and economic change in the Scottish Highlands between 1745 and 1886. The major themes will be the changing identity of the Highland elite; the inherited value-system of society as a whole, particularly kinship, conservatism and the attitude to the land; Gaels and Gaelic in the Lowlands; external cultural and racial perceptions of the Highlands; the role of religion, particularly evangelicalism, both as panacea and as providing the basis of an ideology of liberation; official attitudes to the Gaelic language and to Highland education, and ideas of popular ‘passivity’ and resistance. 1.
