Battle of Dunbar (1296): Encyclopedia II - Scotland in the High Middle Ages - Historiography

Scotland in this period, for such a small region of Eurasia, is relatively well studied in this period. New works come out every year, and the field of Scottish medievalism is a vibrant and changing one. Scottish medievalists can generally be grouped into two categories: Celticists and Normanists. The former, such as Thomas Owen Clancy, Dauvit Broun, and others are interested in the native cultures of the country, and often have linguistic training necessary for their specialism. Normanists on the other hand, are concerned with the French an ...

Battle of Dunbar (1296): Encyclopedia II - William Wallace - 700th anniversary of Wallace's execution

In 2005, the 700th anniversary of Wallace's execution, his sword became the most popular feature of an exhibition in New York during the celebrations of Tartan Week. This marked the first time the sword, weighing 6 pounds (2.5 kilograms) and measuring five feet and four inches, was removed from Scotland. A symbolic funeral was held at the site of Wallace's execution in Smithfield, London with an empty coffin. While the event hosted 300 attendees, more than 900 people unsuccessfully ap ...

Battle of Dunbar (1296): Encyclopedia II - William Wallace - Portrayal in fiction

An insignificant amount of comprehensive and historically accurate information was written about Wallace. Many stories, however, are based on the wandering 15th century minstrel Blind Harry's epic poem, "The Acts and Deeds of Sir William Wallace, Knight of Elderslie", written around 1470. Historians disagree with parts of Blind Harry's tale, or dismiss the entire composition. Blind Harry's poem "Barns of Ayr", for example, describes the incident when three hundred and sixty Scottish nobles, led by Wallace’s uncle, Sir Ranald Crawfor ...

Battle of Dunbar (1296): Encyclopedia II - Scotland in the High Middle Ages - Other Kingdoms

Amidst the genre of National histories and the scholarly desire to explain and legitimise modern national entities, it is easy to forget that the Kingdom of Alba was not the only source of regal authority in northern Britain. In fact, until the Norman era, and perhaps even until the reign of Alexander II, the Scottish king controlled only a minority of the people who lived inside the boundary of modern Scotland, in the same way as the French monarchs of the middle ages only had control of patches of what is now modern France. The rule ...
