Présentation de l'éditeur
Yarrow has inspired, and to give such brief biographical sketches of the various poets as may prove either interesting or instructive to the general reader. The task of making a judicious selection from the mass of material which lay ready to hand was none of the easiest, as Yarrow, for many generations, has been a favourite theme of the votaries of the Muse. The poems here published may be regarded as fairly representative of the poetical literature of the valley. Many of them have attained an almost world-wide celebrity; others of them, perhaps, derive their chief interest from local or historical associations, and a number of them are now printed for the first time. I have endeavoured to give the various ballads and poems, as nearly as possible, in the form in which I have found them, either in the works of their respective authors, or as printed in the newspapers and magazines in which they were originally published. This accounts for a certain variety of spelling which the eager eye of the critic will be sure to detect.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book captures the magic of Yarrow, a Scottish river celebrated in song for centuries. From the haunting strains of the Dowie Dens, the ballad that has inspired so much subsequent literature, it traces the thread of Yarrow's poetic legacy through time. The author discusses the social and historical context in which these songs were born, with particular focus on the themes of love and loss that resonate throughout Yarrow's balladry. The significance of these ideas in wider Scottish literature is also explored, along with insights into the significance of Yarrow in the development of literary romanticism, a movement that would forever associate the region with passion, longing, and melancholy. By bringing together many of the songs and poems inspired by Yarrow, this book provides a unique glimpse into the soul of a landscape that has truly captured the imagination of generations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
