Описание: Антология шотладской поэзии XVIII века на гэльском языке c попутным переводом на английский.
In the eighteenth century, as indeed in the twentieth, we can see Gaelic poetry adjusting to a new landscape and environment, carrying both the stimulus and the burden of an older tradition and reacting to new circumstances and influences.
The 'new wave' of Gaelic poets had some contact with the old professionals, or at least their immediate descendants, who still held some of the family manuscripts. This is true of both Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair and John MacCodrum. There seems to have been a brief loss of literacy in the case of a section of the new poets (e.g. Donnchadh Bàn and Rob Donn), but the majority of the well-known eighteenth-century poets were not affected by this. On the contrary, some were acquainted with the literary traditions of Gaelic, English and the Classical languages. So we find Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair writing the old Gaelic script and drawing on some of its saga, while responding also to contemporary Scottish poetry, and to Classical literature. Or, later in the century, we see Ewen MacLachlan following in Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair's footsteps in some of his poetry, and also translating a làrge part of the Iliad into Gaelic.
There is some attempt to give their due weight here to the different traditions of eighteenth-century Gaelic poetry, and to the individual authors, though no doubt a degree of personal preference shows. Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair is presented as the major poet of the period, and the particular strengths of other poets are suggested by the poems selected. Each poet or poem is given a brief introduction, with suggestions for further reading, but it is not part of the scheme of this book to provide detailed editions of poems.
The translations use a variety of styles, usually staying very close to the sense and rhythm of the original poems, and occasionally opting for retention of the rhyming patterns also.
It is hoped that the anthology can be used both as a Gaelic and an English one, but that its Gaelic primacy will be clearly recognised, and that readers will be encouraged either to steep themselves more thoroughly in the Gaelic tradition, or, if they come to it without much previous experience, to make serious attempts to familiarise themselves with it.
