James Macpherson Books

    James Macpherson is celebrated as the "translator" of the Ossian cycle, a collection of epic poems that captivated European readers. He presented these works as ancient Gaelic verses, most notably an epic concerning the hero Fingal. These poems achieved significant international acclaim, hailed as a Celtic counterpart to classical masters like Homer. Macpherson's renderings profoundly influenced numerous writers, including Walter Scott, and left a lasting mark on literary movements across Germany, Hungary, and France.
