Ihe following descriptive poem, (though very old) is of much later date than the foregoing Fragments 1. Five bards, who are the guests of a chief, (himself an excellent poet) go severally out to make their observations on the night, and return each with an extemporary description of it, to which the chief adds one of his own. The time is supposed to be in October, the harvest month in the Highlands; when the face of nature is as various, and its changes as sudden, as they are here represented. Select Letters between Shcnstone and others; published by Hull, 1778. vol. ii. p. 172. 1 The Sir Bards was transmitted, with other Fragments, to Gray and Shenstone, as if literally translated, verse for verse, from an Earse original. It was afterwards published in the same form with the rest of (.'...i;in; and the two copies are now reprinted upon opposite pages, that the variations of imagery observed by Mason may be better contrasted, and the principles of measured prose more distinctly ascertained. The translator has produced it as " A poem a thousand years later than Ossian; but the million seem to have observed his manner, and to have adopted some f his expressions: " or in other words, the poem is descriptive of a later period of society, but the author is the same. Gray considered it as "inferior in kind to the other Fragments, because it vas merely descriptive, but yet full of nature and noble wild imagination." In my opinion it ii far superior, as it is purely descriptive, (in which Macpiicrson certainly excelled) without any insipid fable, and with less of that false pathos and affected sublimity which render Ossian such strange bombast.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a sequence of publications in the 1760s, James Macpherson, a Scottish schoolteacher in the central Highlands, created fantastic epics of ancient heroes and presented them as genuine translations of the poetry of Ossian, a fictionalized Caledonian bard of the third century. In Ossianic Unconformities Eric Gidal introduces the idiosyncratic publications of a group of nineteenth-century Scottish eccentrics who used statistics, cartography, and geomorphology to map and thereby vindicate Macpherson's controversial eighteenth-century renderings of Gaelic oral traditions. Although these writers primarily sought to establish the authenticity of Macpherson's "translations," they came to record, through promotion, evasion, and confrontation, the massive changes being wrought upon Scottish and Irish lands by British industrialization. Their obsessive and elaborate attempts to fix both the poetry and the land into a stable set of coordinates developed what we can now perceive as a nascent ecological perspective on literature in a changing world. Gidal examines the details of these imaginary geographies in conjunction with the social and spatial histories of Belfast and the River Lagan valley, Glasgow and the Firth of Clyde, and the Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland, regions that form both the sixth-century kingdom of Dál Riata and the fabled terrain of the Ossianic poems. Combining environmental and industrial histories with the reception of the poems of Ossian, Ossianic Unconformities unites literary history and book studies with geography, cartography, and geology to present and consider imaginative responses to environmental catastrophe.
