Scottish Highlanders in colonial Georgia : the recruitment, emigration and settlement at Darien, 1735-1748
This
volume
is
a study of
the immigration
of
three individual
groups
of
Scottish Highlanders
as
they
ventured
to the
new colony of
Georgia in
British North America between the
years
1735
and
1748. It
examines
the
importance
of
the area of
the Altamaha River in
which
they settled and
the conflicts along
the
southern
frontier
of
British
colonial
America
between the
rival powers of
Great Britain, Spain, France,
and
the Native
American
population.
These
struggles would necessitate
the organised
recruiting efforts made on
the
part of
the Trustees for Establishing the
Colony
of
Georgia in America to bring Highland Scots, in
particular,
to the
province as
their first line
of
defense.
The focus
of
the text is
on
the Scots themselves as
the
changing
conditions
in the Highlands
motivated
them to leave their
native glens of
Scotland to
come
to the
pine
barrens
of
Georgia. The thesis
explores
the
ability of
these immigrants to face the challenges of a new environment
and
the trials
of
the frontier
settlement at
Darien. It is
an account of
how
their cultural
distinctiveness
and
"old
world" experience aptly prepared
them to adapt and to
prosper
in the
new
land
and
to
play a vital role
in
the
survival of colonial
Georgia. The Highlanders
of
Scotland
who settled
at
Darien during the first two decades
of
the
colony's existence
have been
relegated
to the
shadows of
Georgia's
colonial
history for too long
and
this
work
hopes to establish
their importance during this
crucial period

The embroidered diplomacy:the symbolism of banners used in the inauguration ceremony of the Illirian-Rascian regiment in 1735.
Previously in the University eprints HAIRST pilot service at http://eprints.st-andrews.ac.uk/archive/00000384/Article 6 of 7 in an issue devoted to the visual culture of Poland and Eastern EuropeThis issue was sponsored by The Sikorski Polish Club and The Scottish Polish Cultural AssociationApart from more common forms of state aggrandisement, such as official portraiture, grand allegorical compositions and public monuments, ephemeral spectacles have played an important role in the formation of the state’s public image. This article will examine the political imagery created for an unusual patron, and used for an equally seldom discussed function. The objects of this discussion will be the emblematic decoration of banners, created as the main artefacts in a political spectacle devised by Vikentije Jovanovic (1731-1734), the Orthodox archbishop of Karlovci. The spectacle in question was the inauguration ceremony of the Illirian-Rascian regiment he founded in 1735.Postprin
The Process of Generating Single Large Combined Cloud for Grid-Free Solvers
Dealing with moving body problems, where one component moves relatively with respect to other, is a difficult task in CFD due to the efforts needed in grid handling for every delta change in position of the moving component. The inherent nature of mesh-free solvers reduces the efforts needed for these kinds of problems by operating on a cloud of points rather than a grid. A new method to handle moving body problems is proposed, where individual clouds are generated around each component and are combined into a single large combined cloud. The proposed method is applied to store separation problem and results generated using NAL-MCIR mesh-less solver is compared with experimental results

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
