Our official, public vision of the early eighteenth century demonises Louis XIV and France and marginalises the Scots Jacobites. Louis is seen as an incorrigibly imperialistic monster and the enemy of liberty and all that is good and progressive. The Jacobite Scots are presented as so foolishly reactionary and dumbly loyal that they were (sadly) incapable of recognising their manifest destiny as the cannon fodder of the first British empire.Politics, culture, and society in early modern Britain.Politics and governmentfast(OCoLC)fst01919741Jacobitesfast(OCoLC)fst00981046Diplomatic relationsfast(OCoLC)fst01907412JacobitesSchottlandgndFrankreichgndScotlandfastGreat BritainfastFrancefastFranceHistoryLouis XIV, 1643-1715FranceForeign relationsScotlandScotlandForeign relationsFranceGreat BritainPolitics and government1714-1727Great BritainHistoryGeorge I, 1714-1727British history.French government.French grand strategy.Jacobite Scotland.Queen Mary of Modena.Scots Jacobite movement.Scots noblewomen.climactic moment.geopolitics.historiography.Politics and government.Jacobites.Diplomatic relations.Jacobites.941.071Szechi D(Daniel),252707MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910798418403321Britain's lost revolution3759266UNINA
