Book excerpt: The stories of around 70 women associated with the Moray area, this book provides a unique glimpse into history, looking beyond the male-dominated surface to a wealth of important and extraordinary female achievement.. The local context of the content makes this the ideal tool to drum up interest in the past both in schools and in the wider community, and there are already plans to launch the book in conjunction with an exhibition focusing on female painters and a conference with discussions on many of the women featured. This is a treasure-trove of stories about women whose contribution to history has hitherto been hidden. Click here for more information about the Women of Moray project.

Book excerpt: 'This book describes two contrasting routes in northeast Scotland: the Moray Coast Trail from Forres to Cullen, and the Dava Way, an inland route from Grantown to Forres. The Moray Coast Trail consists of 44 miles of beach walking, coastal paths, quiet roads and old railways. The Dava Way extends for 23 miles inland with vistas of mountain, moorland and farmland. We also introduce the Moray Way, a concept combining most of the above two routes with part of the Speyside Way to form a 95-mile circuit of considerable beauty and historical interest.

Download or read book Medieval Art Architecture and Archaeology in the Dioceses of Aberdeen and Moray written by Jane Geddes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the medieval heritage of Aberdeenshire and Moray, the essays in this volume contain insights and recent work presented at the British Archaeological Association Conference of 2014, based at Aberdeen University. The opening, historical chapters establish the political, economic and administrative context of the region, looking at both the secular and religious worlds and include an examination of Elgin Cathedral and the bishops’ palaces. The discoveries at the excavations of the kirk of St Nicholas, which have revealed the early origins of religious life in Aberdeen city, are summarized and subsequent papers consider the role of patronage. Patronage is explored in terms of architecture, the dramas of the Reformation and its aftermath highlighted through essentially humble parish churches, assailed by turbulent events and personalities. The collegiate church at Cullen, particularly its tomb sculpture, provides an unusually detailed view of the spiritual and dynastic needs of its patrons. The decoration of spectacular ceilings, both carved and painted, at St Machar’s Cathedral, Provost Skene’s House and Crathes Castle, are surveyed through the eyes of their patrons and the viewers below. Saints and religious devotion feature in the last four chapters, focusing on the carved wooden panels from Fetteresso, which display both piety and a rare glimpse of Scottish medieval carnal humour, the illuminated manuscripts from Arbuthnott, the Aberdeen Breviary and Historia Gentis Scotorum. The medieval artistic culture of north-east Scotland is both battered by time and relatively little known. With discerning interpretation, this volume shows that much high-quality material still survives, while the lavish illustrations restore some glamour to this lost medieval world.
