Lawyers' Edinburgh 1800-2000

Lawyers' Edinburgh 1800-2000 is a beginning on the history of leading Edinburgh law firms from 1800-2000, intended to show their long existence, their location in the New Town until very recently, and the identities of their partners. The database, which also includes photos of locations, is the result of a pilot study. The database has been designed so that it can be extended in its coverage of time, space and persons. For useful background see Hector L MacQueen, 'Lawyers’ Edinburgh 1908-2008', Book of the Old Edinburgh Club, new series volume 8 (2010) pp. 27-53. http://www.oldedinburghclub.org.uk/BOEC/Volume-8.shtml《1800-2000年爱丁堡律师事务所史》（Lawyers' Edinburgh 1800-2000）是一部关于1800至2000年间爱丁堡头部律师事务所发展历程的开篇性研究，旨在呈现这些机构的长期存续状态、直至近年仍选址于爱丁堡新城区（New Town）的区位特征，以及其合伙人群体的身份信息。该数据库还收录了各事务所经营场所的实拍照片，系一项先导性研究的成果。本数据库的架构预留了扩展空间，可在时间跨度、地域覆盖范围与人物覆盖维度上进行扩充。如需查阅相关背景文献，可参阅赫克托·L·麦昆（Hector L MacQueen）的《1908-2008年爱丁堡律师业》（Lawyers’ Edinburgh 1908-2008），该文刊载于《旧爱丁堡俱乐部会刊》（Book of the Old Edinburgh Club）新系列第8卷（2010年），第27至53页。相关网址为：http://www.oldedinburghclub.org.uk/BOEC/Volume-8.shtml
