dbo:abstract
  • The Marshall Chair of French Language and Literature is one of two established chairs in French at the University of Glasgow, the other being the Stevenson Chair which is not currently occupied. It was established in 1917 as the Marshall Chair of Modern Romance Language from a lectureship instituted in 1895, and had its title changed in 1966. Robert Marshall, after whom the chair is named, owned the Grangehill Estate near Beith, Ayrshire, and left it to the university in his will to assist with the foundation of a chair in modern languages. He died in 1912. His legacy was combined with that of James Clason-Harvie of Brownlie and others to endow the existing lectureship, created as a chair in 1917. (en)
