Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Border ballads, exploring the question of their authenticity and their place within the broader tapestry of Scottish and English literature. The author examines four well-known ballads, including the Scottish version of the Battle of Otterburn, Auld Maitland, and Kinmont Willie, analyzing their historical context, their relationship to oral tradition, and the possible influence of later authors like Sir Walter Scott. The book challenges the conventional view of these ballads as purely oral in origin, exploring the possibility that they were altered, fabricated, or even entirely composed by individuals. The author meticulously scrutinizes the evidence, comparing different versions of the ballads, tracing their evolution through various manuscripts and publications, and offering a fresh perspective on their origins. The author's analysis also sheds light on the motivations behind the creation of these ballads, suggesting that national pride and the desire to preserve historical memory played a significant role in their development. This book offers a compelling exploration of the complex interplay between history, literature, and cultural identity, providing valuable insights into the enduring power of the Border ballad tradition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331173809_0
