摘要本文旨在分析苏格兰贵族在皇冠联盟和国民盟约之间的岁月中被英国化的程度。这个问题关系到1637 - 168年苏格兰革命的起源，也关系到近代早期多国家君主制中更广泛的精英融合问题。讨论的话题包括贵族教育、接触新的宫廷文化、在英国任职、英国赞助和生活方式对收入和支出的影响、荣誉制度的变化以及出生、婚姻和死亡的新模式。结论是，首先，苏格兰人在宫廷中的存在使得1603年之后的英格兰宫廷不再有意义。其次，除了少数宫廷家族之外，苏格兰贵族很少被英国化，即使是这些宫廷家族也保留了强烈的民族意识。
Abstract This article seeks to analyse the extent to which the Scottish aristocracy was anglicized in the years between the union of the crowns and the national covenant. The question is one which has a bearing upon the origins of the Scottish revolution in 1637–8, and on the wider issues of elite integration in multi-state monarchies in the early modem period. Topics discussed are aristocratic education, exposure to a new court culture, office holding in England, the effects on income and expenditure of English patronage and lifestyles, changes in the honours system, and new patterns in births, marriages and deaths. The conclusions are firstly that the Scottish presence at court was such that it does not make sense to talk of an English court after 1603. Secondly, there was very little anglidzation of the Scottish aristocracy outside a handful of court families, and even these retained a strong sense of national consciousness.
