History of Scotland: Volume 1, To the Accession of Mary Stewart
Peter Hume Brown's History of Scotland was first issued by the Cambridge University Press in three successive volumes from 1898 to 1909. These volumes were published in a new edition in 1911, the version which is reprinted here, which introduced some corrections as well as an additional chapter on the development of politics, education, and religion in Scotland during the last half of the nineteenth century. Taken together, Hume Brown's study provides a far-reaching, coherent narrative of Scotland's history, from the Roman occupation of North Britain in the first century to the changes and events that brought the nation into the twentieth century. This is the first volume of History of Scotland. It covers the period from the Roman invasion of Scotland in AD 80 to the end of the reign of James V in 1542.

Survival, Revival and Moral Revolution: the Life and Times of Alexander Stewart
Captured by Napoleon’s forces off the coast at Brighton in the year of Trafalgar, the fourteen year old Scot, Alexander Stewart, survived ten years in often appalling conditions in French prisons. He stood up to the bullies, taught himself French and discovered Voltaire. He made four attempts to escape before returning to England where he became an inspirational Congregational minister, who played a full part in the Evangelical revival. The Nonconformists returned from the margins of society to help transform the political and moral landscape of the nation. In two seismic years, the landed classes lost their virtual monopoly of power and slavery was abolished in the British Empire. Spearheaded by preachers such as Stewart and educators such as the Anglican Thomas Arnold, the political nation underwent a moral revolution, asking the question of what ought we to do rather than what do we want to do. Simon Williams, is the great-great-grandson of Alexander Stewart. He has drawn on the manuscript written by Stewart for his children to provide an exciting, new perspective on nineteenth century British history.

Christianity, Community and Crisis. A study of Stewart O'Nan's novel "A Prayer for theDying" and the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic
Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,7, University of Dusseldorf "Heinrich Heine" (Anglistik II), course: Virus as Political Metaphor, language: English, abstract: How challenging the fulfillment of one's own role in society and the co-occurring responsibilities, as well as weighting up mental well-being against physical health, during an imminent crisis can become, is something the protagonist of Stewart O'Nan's novel "A Prayer for the Dying" becomes painfully aware of. Set a few years after the Civil War, Jacob Hansen has just returned from the war and now holds the office of Sheriff, Pastor and Undertaker in the small Wisconsin town Friendship - he is a dutiful man who takes his roles very seriously. When a deadly epidemic, Diphtheria, starts to spread around the townspeople, Jacob struggles between keeping the town safe and maintaining his sanity, troubled by post-traumatic stress disorder. However, the townspeople are not very compliant and a threatening natural catastrophe further strains Jacob's moral disposition as he has to decide between leaving the sick to die and saving those not struck by disease. This paper aims to elaborate on how in general diseases may be instrumentalized to fit a certain persons or groups psychological needs, and how especially the question of responsibility, as well as the virological imperative, steers a community's behavior in the face of an epidemic/pandemic. Further, it will discuss the ethical and inner conflicts concerning the measures taken to overcome the threat of a deadly disease. In concern to this, the self as "evil object" will be explained and, inter alia, measures such as isolative quarantine will be discussed exemplarily. Stewart O'Nan's A Prayer for the Dying, as well as recent literature regarding the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will function as analytical basis for this paper. Lastly, I will try to formulate an assessment of the situation'
