The fishing town of Pittenweem (Fife) got its name (Gaelic Pett na h-Uaimhe, ‘estate of the cave’) from an impressive geological feature close to the East Shore known as St Fillan’s Cave. Although the existence of a historical Fillan has been carefully examined, no firm evidence has been found to link him to the famous Cave. In fact, the earliest recorded references to the Cave call it fons Sancte Marie Magdalene (‘spring of St Mary Magdalene’), leaving us with a new question related to Pittenweem’s pre-Reformation association with the Magdalene. This article attempts to understand when and how this came about. It begins by casting the net wide, setting the cult of Mary Magdalene within the broader context of the western Church, before offering a gazetteer of Magdalene sites in medieval Scotland and an exploration of when and how her cult came to Pittenweem. It concludes with brief remarks about the Cave’s later association with St Fillan.
捕鱼小镇Pittenweem(法夫)得名(盖尔语Pett na h-Uaimhe，“洞穴的庄园”)，因为它靠近东海岸的一个令人印象深刻的地质特征，被称为圣菲兰洞。尽管人们已经仔细研究了历史上菲兰人的存在，但没有找到确凿的证据将他与这个著名的洞穴联系起来。事实上，关于这个洞穴的最早记录称它为fons Sancte Marie Magdalene(“圣玛丽抹大拉的春天”)，这给我们留下了一个新的问题，这个问题与Pittenweem在宗教改革前与抹大拉的联系有关。本文试图理解这是何时以及如何发生的。书中首先把网撒得很广，将抹大拉的玛利亚崇拜置于西方教会更广阔的背景下，然后提供了中世纪苏格兰抹大拉遗址的地名词典，并探索了她的崇拜何时以及如何来到皮滕威姆。它以简短的评论结束了洞穴后来与圣菲兰的联系。

In his Historia ecclesiastica, Bede includes a letter on the dating of Easter and the tonsure, addressed to Nechtan, king of the Picts, written in the name of Ceolfrith (died 716), abbot of Wearmouth-Jarrow. A reassessment of Charles Plummer's assertion of Bede's authorship, expounding Plummer's case at greater length and in more detail, shows that his arguments continue to convince. Bede's authorship provides the best key to the text; and, given the scale of the evidence in its favour, this conclusion should become the default scholarly view, statable without qualification. Accepting the arguments for Bede's authorship of the Letter also casts light on his role in the Wearmouth-Jarrow community early in his career and is evidence for his involvement in high-level diplomacy. Bede's role in the paschal negotiations can also potentially help to contextualise some of his other contemporary literary products, or work towards them – including the Historia ecclesiastica itself.

In the Victorian Era, several Morayshire antiquaries attempted to reconstruct the plan of the ancient precincts, or chanonry, of the cathedral church of the Holy Trinity at Elgin. So comprehensive was their work, and such were their reputations, that little has been done since to re-examine their legacy. A discovery in the library of the University of Aberdeen has led to a review of the work that has previously been accepted as showing the layout of the cathedral precincts. It has necessitated the production of a definitive list of the prebends of the cathedral and has provided information regarding some of the chaplainries that were within it. A modified map of the chanonry has been produced based on a previous version which was published by Charles Rampini.

A saint called Odrán appears as part of several other saints’ Lives, often in a role closely connected to his death, and sometimes in a way which made him an alter ego of the principal saint of the Life. Such a death – whether of Odrán or another saint – could establish the sanctity of a site and could also express hierarchies of ecclesiastical authority. The cult of St Odrán on Iona, first attested in the twelfth century, fits this pattern. It is related to the claim that Derry made at the time to authority over the Columban familia. The cult of Odrán is also related to the layout of Iona's holy places – chapels and burial grounds – and to the ritual movement between them involving both the living and the dead.

Coal Country: The Meaning and Memory of Deindustrialization in Postwar Scotland was enthusiastically anticipated by a community of scholars associated with “deindustrialization studies”. This loose grouping has sought to advance the study of deindustrialization from the economics of male industrial job loss toward broader readings of the cultural, social, and political effects wrought by industrial ruination. As the author states at the outset, “deindustrialization’s impact was as keenly felt in cultural and political terms as it was economically” (p.1). In many instances, Gibbs reflects and continues this academic endeavour in an expansive study of the deindustrialization of the nationalized coal mining industry in Scotland. The monograph, then, covers issues of gender, community, temporality, and nationhood, while also being firmly rooted in the traditions of Labour History, focussing heavily on the political economies of colliery closures and institutional relationships between the National Union of Mineworkers Scotland Area (NUMSA), the National Coal Board (NCB), and central government. As the work is so rich, this review highlights in turn only a few related topic salient to an Antipode audience: society and gender; temporalities; and political geographies. Before this, it is worthwhile to make some general comments on the mechanics of text. The study moves back and forth across close to a century of histories and memories in multiple coalfields across Scotland, raising concerns of eliding important trajectories and disjunctions in what is clearly a complex and contested past. The task is complicated further by the evocative subject matter and methodologies: extensive archival research and oral history interviews with mining communities, supplemented by cultural, artistic
