Sinopsis

Ossian, his Principal Poems presents the foundational texts of the Ossianic cycle, purportedly translated by James Macpherson from ancient Gaelic sources. This volume collects the epic poems attributed to Ossian, a legendary Scottish bard of the 3rd century. Macpherson?s work ignited a literary sensation in the 18th and 19th centuries, influencing Romanticism and ideas about the sublime. The poems, filled with heroic narratives, melancholy landscapes, and supernatural elements, offered a vision of a noble, ancient past. Despite debates over their authenticity, the ?Ossian? poems remain a significant and enduring work of Scottish literature, capturing the imagination of readers and shaping literary tastes for generations. This edition allows readers to explore the myths, legends, and lyrical beauty of Ossian?s world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
