Jules Sion,Alan Grant Ogilvie and the college des Ecossais in Montpellier: A network of geographers

The ‘new geography’ propounded by Vidal de La Blache in the early years of the 20th century was diffused by his protégés in France and abroad. Field classes played a significant role in the process, with the Collège des Ecossais, established by Patrick Geddes at Montpellier, providing an ideal base for British students to study the natural and cultural landscapes of the component pays of southern France. The careers of Jules Sion and Alan Grant Ogilvie are explored in this article, and practical links between French and British geographers are exemplified through experiences of fieldwork in the Languedoc before and after World War II. Networks of professional contact and friendship are vital in understanding how the practice of modern geography has been shaped.

In search of the physical: George Adam Smith's journeys to palestine and their importance

By any standard, George Adam Smith's was a remarkable career. Having established a reputation for himself as the first minister of a new congregation of the Free Church of Scotland in the west of Aberdeen, where he consolidated his liberal evangelical pulpit between 1882 and 1892, Smith went on to become a foremost Old Testament scholar in the Free Church College in Glasgow (1892-1910) and Principal of Aberdeen University (1910-1935). More than one student of the period has linked his name with that of A.B. Davidson and W.R. Smith, succeeding them as one of Scotland's leading Old Testament scholars in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.     

Quartz recrystallization and fluid flow during contact metamorphism: a cathodoluminescence study

Cathodoluminescence (CL) images of quartz grains in the Appin Quartzite from the aureole of the Ballachulish Igneous Complex (Scotland) reveal a textural complexity that we interpret in the light of published models of the evolution of the contact aureole. Five distinct generations of quartz can be discriminated in CL. The oldest of these is a dark luminescing mottled quartz (Type 1 quartz) that occurs in the centres of pre‐existing grains, in samples collected from 210 m to 0.1 m from the contact. Dark mottled quartz is interpreted to be unrecrystallized material and has a regional metamorphic CL spectral signature. The onset of contact metamorphism resulted in grain growth visible in CL as a series of fine‐scale alternating bands of bright and dark luminescing material (Type 2 quartz), which we attribute to infiltration of repeated pulses of small amounts of H₂O along grain boundaries. Close to the intrusion, a subgrain‐scale network of intragranular, bright luminescing features could have resulted from either intragranular microcrack‐controlled infiltration of H₂O at high temperatures or intergranular cracking followed by grain growth (Type 3 quartz). Broad bands of bright material on grain boundaries in samples that are inferred to have undergone partial melting are interpreted as quartz crystallized from the melt phase (Type 4 quartz). The final stage in the textural development is marked by a series of aligned fractures, detected in CL by nonluminescing material (Type 5 quartz) and corresponding closely with trails of fluid inclusions. These fractures are interpreted as the pathways for late‐stage, low‐temperature, retrogressive fluids.
