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.
