For more than two centuries in which Catholicism was illegal in
Scotland, the Scots Colleges abroad operated as a sixth Scottish
university. During this time the university s alumni, individually
and collectively, helped to ensure the survival of Catholicism in
Scotland through political and military activity as well as
missionary work. Earlier scholarship has treated the colleges
individually and overlooked the degree to which the university
corpus formed coherent networks which, over two centuries, made
significant contributions to greater European cultural and
intellectual movements. Through a number of examples, a picture is
given of the hitherto little recognised Scottish Catholic
contribution to developments in the Arts, Humanities and Sciences
in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
