内容説明

Following years of ridicule and disregard, James Macpherson's "Ossian" is attracting serious study. This volume is a reappraisal of the poet and his reception in the European literary world of the 18th and early 19th centuries. Contributors from the fields of Celtic studies, English and German literature, history and philosophy take a fresh look at different aspects of the "Ossian" phenomenon, which include Macpherson's place within authentic Gaelic tradition, the reception of "Ossian" by the English Romantics, the marketing of "Ossian" in Germany and the implications of the "Ossian" phenomenon for the literary canon.
