Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the world of ancient Scottish poetry, presenting a collection of fragments that the author believes are authentic remnants of a bygone era. The author argues that these poems, composed before the emergence of clans and the establishment of Christianity in Scotland, offer a unique glimpse into the earliest stages of Highland society. The book draws upon oral traditions and manuscript fragments to reconstruct the spirit and style of these ancient works, showcasing a language and a world view distinct from later Scottish poetry. The poems explore themes of love, war, and death, featuring heroic figures like Fingal and his son Oscar. The author emphasizes the role of bards in preserving these traditions, passed down through generations through oral storytelling and written records. While the book focuses on these individual poems, the author suggests they may be part of a larger epic narrative about Fingal's wars. The bookââ â¢s insights into the earliest forms of Scottish literature and the historical context surrounding their creation provide valuable knowledge for those interested in exploring the origins of Highland culture and its rich storytelling traditions. 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.…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good Plus. Reprint. 1970. Facsimile reprint of the second edition of 1760 in a limited edition of 500 copies (copy No. 399). [iv], 79pp. James Macpherson (1736-1796) was a Scottish writer, poet, literary collector, and politician. He is known for the Ossian cycle of epic poems, which he claimed to have discovered and translated from Gaelic. 'Fragments of Ancient Poetry' was the first of the Poems of Ossian, published by James MacPherson from material collected from oral sources in the Scottish Highlands. It was claimed the translations dated back to the 3rd century A.D., although this has largely been refuted, research now placing them no earlier than 11th century. This second edition of the 'Fragments' contains some altered passages from the first edition and one entire poem is added. The book is bound in the original blue boards with gold titling on the spine and front board. The book is in excellent condition and the contents are tight and clean with no inscription. The book comes with a clear tissue wrapper, as issued. …
