Leather. Zustand: Very Good. Not Stated (illustrator). A fascinating landmark of Romantic and Celtic literature, this illustrated pocket edition of The Poems of Ossian still sparks debate about its origins. In the publisher's original full calf binding.This edition is the second volume.This pocket edition is a landmark of Romantic literature and the Celtic revival, though it faces controversy over the authenticity of its origins.Illustrated with detailed engravings throughout.Scholars and critics have debated whether Macpherson had actually translated ancient poetry, from collecting word-of-mouth material in Scottish Gaelic, or whether he created original works in the guise of ancient lore. The prevailing conclusion is that Macpherson largely created the poems himself, drawing in part on traditional Gaelic poetry from his own collection.The Poems of Ossian are a cycle of epic poems from Ossian, a legendary 3rd-century Scottish bard and the son of the warrior-hero Fingal. Revered by figures such as Goethe, Napoleon, and Wordsworth. Napoleon reportedly carried a copy into battle, and Thomas Jefferson considered Ossian superior to Homer. In the publisher's original full calf binding. Externally, generally smart. Rubbing and bumping to extremities, particularly the corners and joints. Rubbing to boards and spine. The odd handling mark to boards. Offsetting with the odd spot to endpapers. Previous owner's ink inscription to front free endpaper. Hinges strained. Internally, generally firmly bound. Pages age toned, with the odd spot, heavier to first and last few leaves and fore edge. Slight offsetting to pages facing engravings. Otherwise, pages bright and clean. Very Good. book.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. A handsome late 18th-century pocket edition of The Poems of Ossian, presented here as Volume II of Cameron and Murdoch s embellished Glasgow edition, dated 1797 on the vignette title page. Bound in elegant full tree calf with finely engraved plates and decorative typography, this is a particularly attractive example of Ossian s enduring literary influence. First published in the 1760s by James Macpherson, the Ossianic poems captivated Enlightenment and Romantic audiences alike, influencing literary and cultural figures from Goethe to Napoleon and Wordsworth. Though their authenticity as translations from ancient Gaelic oral tradition has long been debated, their lyrical melancholy and mythic grandeur remain significant to both Scottish identity and European Romanticism.
