Summary |
"This volume examines Highland society during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries highlighting the extent to which kinship and client age were organising principles with in clanship. Based on clans located in the central and eastern Highlands this study goes some way in addressing the imbalance in Highland historiography which hitherto has concentrated largely on the west Highlands and Islands. Focusing initially on internal clan structure, the study broadens into an analysis of local politics within the context of regional and national affairs, raising questions regarding the importance of land and the nature of lordship as well as emphasising the need for Highland history to be integrated further into broader studies of Scottish society during this period."--Jacket. |
