Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scotland Under Her Early Kings, Vol. 2: A History of the Kingdom to the Close of the Thirteenth Century A coronation in the thirteenth century was more than a mere gorgeous ceremony, for it was in a certain sense one of the titles by which a king held his crown. Men's minds were still much influenced by the external forms which were slowly giving way to deeds and written documents, and they were apt to look upon the prince, whose coronation they had witnessed, or who had been proclaimed their king in any other manner to which they were accustomed, as the rightful sovereign, without further question of his title. Accordingly, within twenty four hours of the death of the late king, his successor was crowned at Scone, and hailed as their lawful sovereign by both Estates of the Realm; who, after uniting for three days in celebrating the accession of the youthful Alexander, resumed the character of mourners, and returning to Stirling, where the widowed Ermengarde still watched by the body of her husband, escorted the remains of the deceased monarch to their last resting-place at Arbroath.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scotland Under Her Early Kings, Vol. 1: A History of the Kingdom to the Close of the Thirteenth Century The present work has no pretensions to anything beyond being an attempt at supplying a hiatus in the history of Scotland which has hitherto been left unfilled. By the few historians who, in days gone by, devoted their attention to the subject, the earlier portion of Scottish history, more especially the period before the reign of Malcolm Ceanmore, seems to have been tacitly abandoned as a battle ground for theorists - a sort of debateable land upon which they attacked or defended their various sys tems, wielding their feathered weapons with quite as much hostility as ever Pict, Scot, or Attacot displayed in actual combat, though (perhaps more fortunately for themselves than for their readers) without similarly fatal consequences. In the com pany of these enthusiasts I first endeavoured to trace out the history of the past, until, dissatisfied with my guides, I turned to chartulary and chronicle, with the result which is now before the reader.

All southward of the Tyne, indeed, was held probably in the name of the Empress Queen, but the influence of David extended far beyond the Tees, and when a claim was raised upon the Honour of Skipton in Craven, it was the Scottish, and not the English king who...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume centres upon the era conventionally labelled the 'Making of the kingdom', or the 'Anglo-Norman' era in Scottish history. It seeks a balance between traditional historiographical concentration on the 'feudalisation' of Scottish society as part of the wholesale importation of alien cultural traditions by a 'modernising' monarchy and more recent emphasis on the continuing vitality and centrality of Gaelic culture and traditions within the twelfth- and early thirteenth-century kingdom. Part I explores the transition from the Gaelic kingship of Alba into the hybridised medieval state and traces Scotland's role as both dominated and dominator. It examines the redefinition of relationships with England, Gaelic magnates within Scotland's traditional territorial heartland and with autonomous/independent mainland and insular powers. These interrelationships form the central theme of an exploration of the struggle for political domination of the northern mainland of Britain and the adjacent islands, the mechanisms through which that domination was projected and expressed, and the manner of its expression.Part II is a thematic exploration of central aspects of the society and culture of late eleventh- to early thirteenth-century Scotland which gave character and substance to the emerging kingdom. It considers the evolutionary growth of Scottish economic structures, changes in the management of land-based resources, and the manner in which secular power and authority were acquired and exercised. These themes are developed in discussions of the emergence of urban communities and in the creation of a new noble class in the twelfth century. Religion is examined both in terms of the development of the Church as an institution and through the religious experience of the lay population.
