Scottish Tourist Board (STB) / Historic Scotland / National Trust for Scotland Conclusion Introduction In 1999, I had the opportunity to spend one year in Scotland within the framework of the European exchange programme Erasmus. It was a very enriching experience and I learnt about a culture and nation that were unknown to me. When I left France in September 1999, it was like setting off on an adventure, but nevertheless I had the impression that I knew a lot about Scotland. Now that I am back, I finally realise that, at the time of my departure, my knowledge of the country was limited to the images that people have of Scotland abroad : bagpipe, kilt, whisky, haunted castles and beautiful scenery among others. The reality was different and I discovered that Scotland was something else and that all these overwhelming and distinctive stereotypes have actually been manufactured for a defined purpose and are, contrary to beliefs, of recent origin (eighteenth century).

The Leighton Library is the oldest private library in scotland and was foundedby Robert Dunblane is close to some of scotland s finest scenery.
http://www.eurotravelling.net/scotland/dunblane_culture.htm
ADVERTISING INFORMATION Dunblane Culture Today Dunblane still exudes an olde worlde charm where examples of seventeenth and eighteenth century architecture blend with Victorian and more modern buildings. The old town remains a quiet atmospheric place which provides many 'touchstones' of bygone times. The city clusters around the bridge over the River Allan and visitors can enjoy a pleasant stroll by the river banks or continue further along the Darn Walk to the nearby town of Bridge of Allan and to Stevenson's Cave, so named because the writer Robert Louis Stevenson is reputed to have composed some of his famous novels here. Less than half a mile from the town centre are the Laighills and Ochlochy Park, also offering excellent walking opportunities as well as a number of tranquil and secluded spots for picnicking The architecture of the old town of Dunblane is truly magnificent especially around the cathedral, in the medieval square, where there are delightful 18th century houses. Open to visitors is the Dean's House of 1624 which contains the Cathedral Museum with its fascinating exhibits while the Leighton Library(1681) contains over four thousand rare books. The historic suburb of Ramoyle is largely unchanged except that the thatched roofs of the whitewashed weaver's cottages are now slated.
Above Dunblane the site of the Dun can still be seen on the wooded hill where St. Blane lived 1400 years ago and founded this fascinating city. Add to this attractive riverside walks, parks, interesting shops, rich surrounding countryside on the edge of the Highlands, friendly local folk and a warm welcome at any of the local hostelries and it is easy to see why Dunblane and Sheriffmuir are popular with visitors

ADVERTISING INFORMATION Glasgow Culture Many of our potential postgraduates may not be familiar with Glasgow, the West of Scotland and the reputation of the University of Strathclyde. For those of you from out with the area, we give an introduction to Glasgow, the friendly city and to Strathclyde, the friendly university. The city which boasted "Glasgow's Miles Better" now has a new slogan: "Glasgow's Alive!" Obviously this is a city with a sense of humour - a gift which has helped it survive the good times and bad times of eight centuries. "Glasgow is one of the funniest places on earth," claims a veteran Glasgow journalist. "It is also one of the friendliest places on earth, because people schooled in hard times acquire sympathy for other people, and the citizens are fascinated by strangers." There is no doubt the opposite is also true - that newcomers, will be fascinated by Glasgow, the city on the River Clyde which had its beginnings in a monk's cell. According to tradition, Saint Mungo (or Kentigern) founded a community in the sixth century on the banks of the Molendinar Burn, a small tributary of the Clyde. The magnificent Cathedral of St Mungo has stood on that site since the 13th century.

95. Highland Scots
An ethnographic report on an isolated and culturally conservative people of the Western Highlands of scotland.
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/EthnoAtlas/Hmar/Cult_dir/Culture.7845
Society-HIGHLAND-SCOTS The Highland Scots are an isolated and culturally conservative people of the Western Highlands of Scotland. The division of Scotland into Highlands and Lowlands is based on ethnic, linguistic, historical, and geographical distinctions. The Highlands are characterized by such social features as crofting tenure, strong community feeling, and a Gaelic-speaking population. Physical and geographical barriers have hindered communication with the rest of Scotland and England. This is particularly true of the Inner and Outer Hebrides, islands off the north-western coast of mainland Scotland. The area also includes the five remaining "crofting" counties of Caithness, Sutherland, Ross and Cromarty, Inverness, and Argyll, but excludes the Orkneys and Shetlands. The specific ethnographic focus of this file is on the Isle of Lewis and Harris in the Outer Hebrides in the county of Inverness. There are about 500 islands in the Inner and Outer Hebrides. Lewis and Harris is located at lat. 57 degrees 40 min.-58 degrees 40 min. N and long. 6 degrees-7 degrees W. It is actually one island, although the two sections are often treated separately. In 1951, the entire Western Highlands population was 119,071. This figure represents a decline of 40.7 percent since 1851. Lewis is the most densely populated area of the Outer Hebrides; in 1961 it contained 21,934 of the entire 32,607 Outer Hebrideans. The density on Lewis in 1951 ranged from 50 to 400 persons per square mile. The density on Skye, in the Inner Hebrides, was 13 per square mile. The Highland Scots are bilingual in Scots Gaelic and English, but the Hebrides is the only area of Scotland which can be characterized as a Gaelic community. According to Parman (1972: 132), "Gaelic is the language of hearth, home, family, and community. English the language of education, the business world, and various transactions with the larger society." Townships are concentrated primarily along the coast, since the inland area of Lewis and Harris is either barren or infertile bog. This coastal location also permits exploitation of sea resources. Townships are owned, often by commercial companies or public bodies or trusts, although a few are individually owned. The township consists of a collection of individual crofts and communal grazing lands. Crofting is a "system of hereditary tenure of individually held small patches of cultivated land combined with communal use of grazing land" (Ducey 1956: 38). Plots of land average between 5 and 10 acres. Crops include oats and hay for the stock, plus a few potatoes and garden vegetables for family use. A farmer also generally has a few cows and one or two dozen sheep. Each crofter in a township also has rights to share in a large area of grazing land. The communal element of the crofting system is the distinguishing feature of land use and community life of the Highland Scots. The effective economic unit is not the individual farm, but rather the communal crofting township. The crofting system of land use and township organization grew up in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Previously the land was held by clans and distributed to clansmen in a "runrig" system of widely dispersed holdings. This system was also to a large extent communal, but the focus was upon the clan. The clan was a four-generation, patrilineal family, whose members could trace descent from the founder. It was headed by a chief, who, in addition to being a father figure, was the administrator and lawgiver to the clansmen. Local representatives of the chief were called tacksmen. Clansmen were given land as joint- or sub-tenants of the chief and/or tacksman. The entire social and economic life of the community was centered upon the clan. When the system of land use changed and the clan declined, the family structure also changed into what Ducey calls an "amorphous extended family." With the decline of the clan system, the community became more geographically oriented. The primary difference between crofting and the runrig system is that in crofting, individual holdings are consolidated. With the Crofters Holdings Act of 1886, crofting areas were defined, and assurance was given of security of tenure, hereditary succession, and fair rent. Townships are characterized by "primitive democracy," (i.e., all adult men vote) and decisions must be unanimous. The township itself, however, is not considered to be the effective social community among the Highland Scots. The social community is the crofting neighborhood, which consists of a number of neighboring townships. According to Ducey (1956: 52) the neighborhood is characterized by a "greater wealth of formal and informal interpersonal activities in which the people associate." In addition, mutual aid replaces cooperation in economic activities. Before the twentieth century, agriculture was subsistence based and fishing supplemented the diet. With the growth of the tweed industry and wage employment, sheepherding has increased in importance and most crops grown are for fodder. Fishing has declined steadily, while wage labor has increased. The Harris Tweed industry has export earnings of over 2,500,000 pounds a year, and it is extremely important to the people of Lewis and Harris. A weaver works at home at a hand loom. Weavers must buy their own equipment and maintain their own workshops, although the individual weavers are affiliated with mills. The independence of the weavers permits the continued maintenance of the crofting system of land use. Ducey claims that in spite of the decline of the clan system, cultural continuity has been maintained through a shift in the focus of the cultural system to religion. The Highland Scots adhere to a particularly ascetic brand of Presbyterianism. Religion prevades all aspects of life. Ducey (1956) and Parman (1972) contain overviews of the Highland Scots.

Fàilte chridheil oirbh uile - a warm Gaelic welcome to you. Gaelic and its related culture are among Scotland's greatest treasures and both have had a profound influence on the nation's social history. Gaelic is one of the family of Celtic languages and is spoken in communities in the north-west of the country. It is also used by many in Scotland's towns and cities. Though the number of native speakers has fallen gradually over the past couple of centuries, Gaelic and its culture have never attracted quite the amount of interest as they do today. Gaelic truly is a great asset and one which we should like to share with you all. Gaelic Scotland offers some background on the language but focuses mainly on providing you with the means to source required information for yourself.

    Service-Learning Study Abroad Program in Scotland
    Scotland is in many ways a nation within a nation. While it is part of Great Britain, and many of the issues concerning England such as the Welfare State are relevant, Scotland has its own culture, history, legal and educational systems, and even its own version of British currency. Your studies are with Scottish/British students in regular classes at the University of Glasgow. The service-learning classes link your community experience to the social and economic concerns of historic and contemporary Scotland and Britain. You may choose electives from the full variety of university offerings, including Scottish heritage studies, British history and literature, and other subjects. Volunteer service opportunities in Glasgow encompass a wide range of possibilities such as social services, health issues, environmental concerns, education, and museum and heritage projects. Glasgow
    As a city, Glasgow is both cosmopolitan and distinctly Scottish in character. It has been prominent in Scottish and British history since the Middle Ages, was a center of the Industrial Revolution and shipbuilding industries, and in recent years has come to be considered the cultural center of Scotland and one of the great artistic and cultural centers of Europe, with music, theater, film, design and the graphic arts readily available. It is easy to get around Glasgow, from the medieval university to the service agencies and cultural activities.
