Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural History Sport in Moray It is now twenty years since the present Editor compiled these Notes on Moray, which were at once welcomed by all lovers of Nature 'like the scent of heather bells or breeze freshened from the wave.' It has long been his wish to prepare a new edition worthy of the Author and the subject, but year after year passed by without the means of gratifying it, as more pressing duties intervened, and if even at this late date he has in any measure succeeded in carrying out his idea, he has to thank Mr. George Reid R.S.A., who not only contributed his own beautiful sketched, made specially for the volume, but gave his advice and superintendence the other illustrations by this young friend Mr. J. Wycliffe Taylor, the materials for which were gathered during a joint expedition to the 'old province.' The Capt. St. John, who kindly placed at the Editor's disposal the Author's sketch books and other MS materials, not accessible when the previous edition was in preparation, his thanks are also specially due. He has used the sketch books freely, but has not thought it necessary to add anything beyond a few footnotes to the text as approved of by the two friends of the Author in 1862. It was somewhat puzzling to know how to treat Mr. St. John's very vigorous pen-and-ink jottings - whether to have them prettily copied and 'improved' by a tamed draughtsman, or reproduced with all their roughness by photography.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural History Sport in Moray I have been particularly careful to describe and note down nothing, the authenticity of which I am not certain of. Indeed, every bird here mentioned, with one or two exceptions, I have either killed or seen myself during my wanderings in wood and plain for several years in this district I have carefully avoided the great error of taking things on hearsay. In the very few instances in which I have been obliged to depend on the eyes of others I have been careful to guard against being knowingly or unknow ingly deceived. A book of this sort should be a book of reference. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Scotland's history is frequently associated with the clarion call of political nationalism. However, in the nineteenth century the influence of history on Scottish national identity was far more ambiguous. How, then, did ideas about the past shape Scottish identity in a period when union with England was all but unquestioned? The activities of the antiquary Cosmo Innes (1798-1874) help us to address this question. Innes was a prolific editor of medieval and early modern documents relating to Scotland's parliament, legal system, burghs, universities, aristocratic families and pre-Reformation church. Yet unlike scholars today, he saw that editorial role in interventionist terms. His source editions were artificial constructs that powerfully articulated his worldview and agendas: emphasising Enlightenment-inspired narratives of social progress and institutional development. At the same time they used manuscript facsimiles and images of medieval architecture to foreground a romantic concern for the texture of past lives. Innes operated within an elite associational culture which gave him access to the leading intellectuals and politicians of the day. His representations of Scottish history therefore had significant influence and were put to work as commentaries on some of the major debates which exorcised Scotland's intelligentsia across the middle decades of the century. This analysis of Innes's work with sources, set within the intellectual context of the time and against the antiquarian activities of his contemporaries, provides a window onto the ways in which the 'national past' was perceived in Scotland during the nineteenth century. This allows us to explore how historical thinkers negotiated the apparent dichotomies between Enlightenment and Romanticism, whilst at the same time enabling a re-examination of prevailing assumptions about Scotland's supposed failure to maintain a viable national consciousness in the later 1800s.
