Mr Calum Cunningham

I hold degrees in History (BA Honours, First Class), Classical Studies (BA Honours, First Class), Psychology (BSc) and Marketing Management (BA).

I also hold Qualified Teaching Status (QTS) and am registered to teach History, Classical Studies, Latin, Modern Studies, Psychology, Sociology and Business Education with the General Teaching Council of Scotland (GTCS).

My research interests primarily include the field of Jacobite studies. My thesis is focused on the political criminalisation and decriminalisation of Jacobitism during the years 1688-1788. Other interests include wider social aspects of the Jacobite movement including court politics, material culture and the lives of the exiled Stuarts.

Aside from this topic, I am also interested in wider aspects of Scottish history, particularly the long eighteenth century period, and in Classical Studies with its significant influence upon later epochs in British and especially Scottish history. I hope to explore these connections in future research.
