Proslavery Collaborations Between British Outport and Metropole
This article provides the first systematic exploration of proslavery collaborations between British outport and metropole from the American War of Independence in 1775 to the abolition of plantation slavery in 1834-1838. Examination of a group of individuals commercially involved with the Caribbean trades including absentee planters, merchants, merchant-proprietors and returned sojournersdescribed here as the 'Glasgow-West India interest'as well …
Scotland, Atlantic slavery and the Scottish National Party
Over the last three decades, a major shift has taken place in Scottish nationalist understandings of Scotland's colonial past. During the second half of the twentieth century, independence supporters viewed Scotland's relationship with England in colonial terms. Since the Scottish Parliament was established in 1999, nationalists have increasingly recognised Scots' role in Atlantic slavery. This paper explores this change within the Scottish Natio…
Centring transatlantic slavery in Scottish historiography
The historiography of Scotland's connections with transatlantic slavery across the British Empire has flourished in the last 20 years, promoting wider public discussion and civic recognition. Nevertheless, the view that historians of Scotland omitted slavery from Scottish historiography remains part of popular discourse. This article adds nuance by considering the absences and eventual centring of slavery in Scottish historiography. In the 1960s,…
Henry Dundas
Henry Dundas, first viscount Melville (1742–1811), lord advocate in Scotland, MP for Edinburgh and Midlothian, first lord of the admiralty, home secretary and the first secretary of state for war, was one of the most powerful politicians in the eighteenth-century British parliament. His involvement in the gradual abolition of the slave trade after 1792 was amongst the most controversial episodes of his career. His role has attracted much interest…
British Universities and Transatlantic Slavery
On 16 September 2018, the University of Glasgow released the report 'Slavery, Abolition and the University of Glasgow'. This acknowledged that slave-owners, merchants and planters with connections to New World slavery - and their descendants - donated capital between 1697 and 1937 that influenced the development of the institution. In producing this report, the institution became the first British university to declare historical income derived f…

Ludovic McLellan Mann and the Cambusnethan bog body
This article considers the circumstances, aftermath and legacy of the discovery of a bog body near Cambusnethan in North Lanarkshire in 1932. The body of a man and a unique jacket were assessed by Ludovic McLellan Mann soon thereafter and removed to Glasgow Museums where they remain today. The body was popularly perceived to be a Scottish Covenanter although there is no scientific or historical evidence of this, and Mann himself was vague. In an …
John Lamont of Benmore
This article traces the rise of John Lamont, a Highland planter in nineteenth-century Trinidad. The island was subsumed into the British Empire in 1802, the third wave of colonization in the British West Indies and just thirty-two years before slavery was abolished. Many Scots travelled in search of wealth and this article reveals how one West India fortune was accumulated and repatriated to Scotland. John Lamont travelled from Argyll in the earl…

A self‐report investigation of two types of myotonic response during sexual orgasm
The researchers set out to obtain self‐reports of individual's orgasm reactions in an attempt to discover whether individuals discriminate between orgasms in qualitative terms using consistent physically identifiable parameters of differentiability such that one can talk about ‘types’ of orgasm. Respondents were asked whether they considered themselves to have a single type of climax or to have several different types, and were asked to describe …
