Biography

Dr Andrew Lind undertook his undergraduate, masters and PhD research at the University of Glasgow, before joining the Institute for Northern Studies in 2021. His thesis explored and examined the various manifestations of Scottish Royalism during the British Civil Wars (c.1638-1651), offering a radical reinterpretation of the ideological appeal and strength of the Royalist cause in Scotland. Andrew has disseminated his research widely in peer-reviewed journals and edited collections, including papers in the Journal of Northern Renaissance, Chris Langley鈥檚 (ed) The National Covenant in Scotland, 1638-1689 (Woodbridge, 2020) and Matthew Ward and Matthew Heffernan鈥檚 (eds) Loyalty to the Monarchs of Late Medieval and Early Modern Britain, c.1400-1688 (Basingstoke, 2020).

In addition to his academic outputs, Andrew has contributed to a number of knowledge exchange and public impact projects, including work with the SQA, as well as television appearances on BBC Scotland鈥檚 鈥楤lood of the Clans鈥� (2020) and Sky History鈥檚 鈥楻iver Hunters鈥� (2020). Primarily a historian of the British Civil Wars (c.1638-1654), Andrew鈥檚 other research interests include the broader political, religious and military history of early modern Britain, Ireland and Northern Europe, particularly the development of religious and political identities.
