Paul Dukes: Contacts and integration: some Scottish examples.
Russia and Scotland share a patron saint. Moreover, according to some accounts, St Andrew carried out much of his mission near the Black Sea while his relics were brought to Scotland. The Declaration of Arbroath, 1320, tells us that the Scottish people themselves originated in Scythia. Arguably, the customary translation into English of the word rod (clan) implies social affinities. The article explores these as well as more precise evidence of Scottish influences on the development of the dvorianstvo, such as the contribution of Ia.V. Bruce to Russian heraldry, and the cases of Patrick Gordon and Paul Menzies. Did they transmit to Peter the Great Scottish concepts of nobility, conceivably with some Masonie element? There is some discussion of early modern Scottish systems of landholding and inheritance, and their possible impact on the maiorat law of 1714. There is also an investigation of the early eighteenth-century proposals for a union of the Russian and Scottish Churches, and its implication for the first and second estates.
