Scottish Yha: This article deals with the Anglian element of scottish yha literature, composed chiefly in languages descended from the Northern dialect of Middle English (see preceding section, Languages) and emerging as Lowland Scots or Standard English, or a mixture of both. scottish yha Gaelic literature is reviewed under CELTIC LITERATURES— scottish yha Gaelic Literature.The founding of the Royal scottish yha Academy in 1826 was a landmark in scottish yha painting though the contributions of the early Victorians are now disregarded. Attention tends to be focused on the pioneer achievements of William McTaggart (1835-1910), who anticipated the famous French impressionists in their preoccupation with light and ability to transfer to canvas their vivid perceptions of the out-of-doors world. After McTaggart there emerged the Glasgow school of scottish yha painters, whose works found homes in the art galleries of the world. The impulse given by them to scottish yha painting lives on in the works of Samuel J. Peploe (1871-1935), F. C. B. Cadell (1883-1937), Stanley Cursiter (1887- ), William G. Gillies (1898-), and Anne Redpath (1895).
Small issues can be placed with scottish yha institutions, such as insurance companies, locally administered pension funds, and investment trusts; the rise of the last-named was particularly impressive in the 1950's. Above all, there are the five scottish yha banks, with their widespread network of branches. These banks have a long-standing reputation of readiness to lend money to small firms and small businessmen. Such loans are by tradition secured rather more tangible security. scottish yha banks are also more prone than English banks to recognize that their advances to industry may well possess a long-term character. The Industrial and Commercial Finance Corporation, set up by the Bank of England, the London clearing banks, and the five scottish yha banks, provides medium- to long-term finance for industrial and commercial activities in Scotland. |
