From the accession of the energetic and fortunate Malcolm Beg to the death of Ferquhard the Unfortunate the progress of the Mackintoshes in power and estimation had been great and rapid. Their most troublesome enemies of former years, the Comyns and the Camerons, had been either entirely quelled or rendered incapable for a time of any great mischief; while the proceedings taken by successive monarchs against the Macdonalds had relieved them from all dependence on the chiefs of the Isles, with whom their relations were now those of friendship and alliance rather than of vassalage. They had also, by the prudent conduct of Malcolm and his son Duncan, secured the favour of the several kings who occupied and clan chattan. 171 the Scottish throne during the century, --a favour which was not withdrawn even when they were brought into collision with the royal authority by the rashness of their young chief Ferquhard. Both kings and island lords had contributed to the enlargement and confirmation of their possessions, and had sought their friendship and co-operation; while with the principal families and clans around them, as well as with some of the great nobles of the kingdom, they were on terms of goodwill and amity. Altogether they appear to have been in a fair way towards obtaining the...

Download or read book The Reign of James VI written by Julian Goodare and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2000-01-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reign of James VI (1567–1625) remains one of the most enigmatic in Scottish history. There are long periods within it that resemble black holes in our knowledge. This study is a concerted attempt by a group of ten scholars of the reign, drawn from three different disciplines, to shed light on its politics and government, viewed through various perspectives. These include the royal court, which is analysed through its literature, architecture and ceremony; noble factionalism; relations with England; a revised model of tensions between church and state; and the relationship between the government and the Highlands, the Borders and the south west, a future region of opposition to Charles I. This study also analyses James as a literary author, correspondent, husband and 'universal king'. The book offers alternatives to accepted views of the reign, dismissing both Melvillianism and 'laissez faire monarchy' as useful tools. It sees the centre of politics as the interaction between an expanded and increasingly expensive royal court and a phenomenal growth of the state, based on a huge increase in legislation and the business of the Privy Council.

Download or read book Yvain written by Chretien de Troyes and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1987-09-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.
