The Aberdeen Articles
View through CrossRef
The Aberdeen Articles are the demands of the rebels who eventually killed James III at Sauchieburn in 1488. The document forms the core of the ensuing parliament’s statement about the cause of the king’s death and how his son came to the throne. This essay examines the nine articles in their original context of July 1488 and how linguistic and structural choices reflect the rebels’ understanding of Scottish kingship and their criticism of James III’s failures. The essay also considers the document’s secondary context, embedded in the parliamentary record as part of a communal narrative and pacification exercise. A study of how parliament recontextualizes the document reflects the institution’s power to make a once-resistant text work for the new hegemony. This sheds light on the role of texts in Crown–parliament relations, particularly in the much-debated area of resistance.
