Join University Principal Professor Dame Sally Mapstone FRSE in conversation with Professor Dauvit Broun of the University of Glasgow and Elizabeth Henderson, Rare Books Librarian in University Collections and Museums, as they explore the St Andrews Chronicles – one of Scotland’s most important historical works.
Discover the story of this extraordinary manuscript’s journey to St Andrews and its profound significance for our understanding of Scottish identity, legacy and nationhood.
To accommodate growing demand, the panel will convene at School V, St Salvator’s Quad, and the event will move to the Wardlaw Museum for a drinks reception afterwards, with a chance to see the Chronicles on display.
The St Andrews Chronicles is digitised and available online for a sneak peek before the event: The St Andrews Chronicles | Collections | University of St Andrews
