Book The First Scottish Enlightenment

Download or read book The First Scottish Enlightenment written by Kelsey Jackson Williams and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional accounts of the Scottish Enlightenment present the half-century or so before 1750 as, at best, a not-yet fully realised precursor to the era of Hume and Smith, at worst, a period of superstition and religious bigotry. This is the first book-length study to systematically challenge that notion. Instead, it argues that the era between approximately 1680 and 1745 was a 'First' Scottish Enlightenment, part of the continent-wide phenomenon of early Enlightenment and led by the Jacobites, Episcopalians, and Catholics of north-eastern Scotland. It makes this argument through an intensive study of the dramatic changes in historiographical practice which took place in Scotland during this era, showing how the documentary scholarship of Jean Mabillon and the Maurists was eagerly received and rapidly developed in Scottish historical circles, resulting in the wholesale demolition of the older, Humanist myths of Scottish origins and their replacement with the foundations of our modern understanding of early Scottish history. This volume accordingly challenges many of the truisms surrounding seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Scottish history, pushing back against notions of pre-Enlightenment Scotland as backward, insular, and intellectually impoverished and mapping a richly polymathic, erudite, and transnational web of scholars, readers, and polemicists. It highlights the enduring cultural links with France and argues for the central importance of Scotland's two principal religious minorities—Episcopalians and Catholics—in the growth of Enlightenment thinking. As such, it makes a major intervention in the intellectual and cultural histories of Scotland, early modern Europe, and the Enlightenment itself.

Book Scottish Liturgical Traditions and Religious Politics

Download or read book Scottish Liturgical Traditions and Religious Politics written by Allan I. Macinnes and published by EUP. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the religious cultures, beliefs and imperatives that shaped the Jacobite movement in Scotland The Revolution of 1688-90 was accompanied in Scotland by a Church Settlement which dismantled the Episcopalian governance of the church. Clergy were ousted and liturgical traditions were replaced by the new Presbyterian order. As Episcopalians, non-jurors and Catholics were sidelined under the new regime, they drew on their different confessional and liturgical inheritances - pre- and post-Reformation - to respond to ecclesiastical change and inform their support of the movement to restore the Stuarts. In so doing, they had a profound effect on the ways in which worship was conducted and considered in Britain and beyond. This book provides a fresh examination of the Jacobite movement based not on dynastic identification but on confessional and intellectual bases of support, focusing on the composite and nuanced traditions that sustained the Jacobite movement for seven decades beyond the 1688-90 Revolution. Allan I. Macinnes is Emeritus Professor of History, University of Strathclyde. Patricia Barton is subject leader in History, School of Humanities, University of Strathclyde. Kieran German is a teaching fellow at the University of Dundee.
