Course Description
Seventeenth century Scotland was particularly turbulent: an absentee monarch provoked a civil war that resulted in the establishment of a covenanted theocracy, prompting invasion and incorporation into the republic of the English Commonwealth. The restoration of the Stuarts was followed by the accession of William of Orange and Jacobitism and culminated with parliamentary Union in 1707. Students discuss these and other main features of Scottish history during this period.

Course Description
The kingdom of Scotland grew from four distinct population groups - Picts, Britons, Scots, and Angles - and had emerged as a nation by AD 900. The course examines the similarities and differences within these societies and the means by which the Scots came to dominate and name this land. The course also assesses the impact and spread of Christianity and how religion was utilized in the creation of Scotland. To what degree did the territorial extent of Scotland fluctuate over this period and what were the reasons why this was so? Students examine land tenure and consider the ways in which it differed from later feudalism. Was Shakespeare's rendition of Macbeth and Duncan accurate? What was David I's background before becoming king in 1124?
