Explores the religious cultures, beliefs and imperatives that shaped the Jacobite movement in Scotland Brings together research from established academics in the field, emerging and independent scholars and contemporary Episcopalian churchmen Provides a fresh examination of the Jacobite movement based not on dynastic identification but on confessional and intellectual bases of support Assesses the development of Scottish liturgy from the sixteenth- to the eighteenth-century and the substantial advances made in Scottish ecclesiastical thought and practice The Revolution of 1688-90 was accompanied in Scotland by a Church Settlement which dismantled the Episcopalian governance of the church. Clergy were ousted and liturgical traditions were replaced by the new Presbyterian order. As Episcopalians, non-jurors and Catholics were side-lined under the new regime, they drew on their different confessional and liturgical inheritances, pre- and post-Reformation, to respond to ecclesiastical change and inform their support of the movement to restore the Stuarts. In so doing, they had a profound effect on the ways in which worship was conducted and considered in Britain and beyond. This book provides a fresh examination of the Jacobite movement based not on dynastic identification but on confessional and intellectual bases of support, focussing on the composite and nuanced traditions that sustained the Jacobite movement for seven decades beyond the Revolution of 1688-90.

Reviews
"A splendidly detailed collection which takes us beyond secular and sectarian history to demonstrate the intimate relationship between liturgy and ideology in early modern Scotland. A real advance in scholarship: next stop a Scottish version of Alexandra Walsham's Church Papists, please." -Murray Pittock, University of Glasgow
