Simpson","doi":"10.3366/inr.2023.0341","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3366/inr.2023.0341","url":null,"abstract":"Historians have long been aware of a text purporting to contain decisions made by the burgesses of four Scottish burghs: Berwick, Roxburgh, Edinburgh and Stirling. This text is internally dated to 1295 or 1296 and purports to lay down rules governing succession to deceased burgesses, some of which have echoes in modern Scots succession law. The text of the decisions has attracted little study, in part because of its complex manuscript tradition. This article draws on important recent work on the Scottish legal manuscript traditions, to explore the transmission of the decisions and what they meant to those who first articulated them. In the process, it also asks about the interaction between the manuscript traditions that transmitted the legal texts and the traditional customary practices of Scottish burghs. These questions may have some bearing on how historians understand the development of the Scottish legal tradition during the medieval period.","PeriodicalId":42054,"journal":{"name":"Innes Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41282662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also suggests that the idea that the Scottish Protestant coup of 1559–60 was ‘the Scottish Reformation’ is profoundly confusing and that the presence of Jesuits, the use of the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius Loyola and the implementation of the decrees of Trent in the Kingdom of Scotland before 1560 is not a ‘Counter-Reformation before the Reformation’ but just part of a series of movements of Catholic Reform that defined the Scottish Church in the century before the later missions of the Scottish Jesuits in 1578–1581.","PeriodicalId":42054,"journal":{"name":"Innes Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42557984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He listed their names in latinised form in a document which survives in the Vatican. Ronald Black attempts a thorough analysis of the names with the aim of establishing the identity of each individual. To do this he presents a numbered table of the names in their Latin, Gaelic and English forms, summarises the history of Jura landownership from 1334 to 1624, and then discusses each name individually. The names represent about 10% of Jura’s population, concentrated in the south. Black finds that at least 40% of them represent the hereditary professional classes of Gaelic Scotland, those whose heritage was most under threat from the Reformation, the recent Campbell takeover of most of the island, and the Statutes of Iona.","PeriodicalId":42054,"journal":{"name":"Innes Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45792683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
