Everything you need to know about the author James Macpherson
James Macpherson was an influential Scottish writer and politician known for his controversial ‘Ossian’ poems. These poems, supposedly translated from ancient Gaelic sources, played a significant role in the Romantic movement. Two important works from Macpherson are “Fragments of Ancient Poetry” and “Fingal”, both of which purport to be translations of ancient Gaelic poetry. “Fragments” comes across as a collection of romantic and heroic verse, while “Fingal” purports to be an epic poem akin to “Beowulf”. Though both embrace a romantic and nostalgic vision of the Gaelic past, “Fragments” is more disparate and fragmented, while “Fingal” is more unified and narrative in structure. Despite these differences, both works were highly influential in promoting to Europe a romanticised image of Gaelic Scotland and its heroic past.
