We are happy to announce that Professor Leith Davis has received a SSHRC Partnership Engage Grant for the project: “Engaging Public and Academic Audiences to Recover Lost Voices of Scottish History: 'The Lyon in Mourning' Manuscript and the Jacobite Networks of the 1745 Rising.â€

This means there is now an official collaboration between our Scottish Studies Centre, ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV's Digital Humanities Innovation Lab and the National Library of Scotland that will allow us to:

  • Continue with the TEI encoding of the “Lyon in Mourningâ€
  • Hire a research student who is Edinburgh-based to do work on our behalf in the National Library of Scotland’s archives 
  • Construct an interactive website
  • Mobilize important community research
