- **Event Description**: Join Dr. Angus Vine as he explores George Buchanan’s legacy as a humanist poet & teacher, tracing his impact across 16th-c Europe.About this EventSpeaker: Dr. Angus VineToday, George Buchanan is best-known as a political philosopher and historian. In his own day, however, he was much more celebrated as a teacher and poet. This lecture, therefore, sets out to reconstruct Buchanan’s career as a pedagogue, from his earliest itinerant days across continental Europe through to his later role as James VI’s tutor, and will survey the range of pedagogical works that he wrote from textbooks on grammar and prosody through to didactic plays (both translations and original compositions). In parallel, it will also trace his career as sixteenth-century Scotland’s leading Neo-Latin poet.With this two-fold approach, the lecture will reveal what it meant to be a ‘humanist’ in sixteenth-century Europe, what a ‘humanist’ education looked like in the early modern world, and how Buchanan by the end of the century had come to be the pre-eminent example of a ‘humanist’ poet and pedagogue not only in Scotland, but also in the whole of the British Isles.Doors open from 6:30pm with the talk starting at 7pm.
