SUMMARY:The Road to Culloden
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr Clare Loughlin on Thursday 16 April from 4pm-5.15pm (BST) as she discusses The Battle of Culloden on its 280th anniversary.

The crushing defeat of Jacobite military forces brought an inglorious end to the military campaign to restore the exiled Stuart monarchy. Culloden endures in the popular imagination as the culmination of the Jacobite movement; this online session looks at the road to Culloden and its complicated legacies in Scotland, Britain and the wider world.

This talk places the 1745-6 Jacobite rising in the context of the wider Jacobite movement. It considers the principal motivations behind the rising, thinking carefully about the role of the 1707 Union in driving Jacobitism forward.

It also considers the breadth and depth of popular support in Scotland for the Jacobite cause, shedding light on the divisions that had gripped Scottish and British society for much of the eighteenth century. Finally, it considers the complicated legacies of the rising, and how it was presented and portrayed by Jacobitism’s opponents and supporters.
