Anster Fair (Classic Reprint) by William Tennant Pdf

Excerpt from Anster Fair In "Anster Fair," the author had no other end in view than the creation of pure fun - innocent, aimless enjoyment, as its own end. We have ceased to consider this an unworthy motive, and only ask, is it well done? The poem is unique in English Literature; and though its machinery is familiar enough, yet the structure and treatment are quite original. The sub-plot is kept in admirable proportion, and its evolution so depends on that of the main plot that there is nothing discordant in their relative development. The adjuncts, too, are appropriate and relevant; and the variety and life with which the action is hurried on keep the reader's interest unflagged till the end. Though to some extent cast in a local mould, it is, nevertheless, so perfectly catholic, that it would suffer little depreciation by having its names changed to those of any locality in the Kingdom. That it has hitherto been little known beyond Scotland, is greatly owing to causes referred to in our memoir of the author - his own unobtrusive modesty, and literary isolation; and the luxurious growth of passionate and brilliant poetry in the midst of which it first appeared. Now, however, that the poetic excitement of the first half of the present century has subsided, and that the heavier matter which that ferment kept suspended has sunk to the bottom, this new edition of "Anster Fair" is launched with strong faith in its permanent buoyancy. The text has been carefully collated with all the editions published by the Author, and a few slight grammatical oversights, and slips of measure, are corrected.

James Hogg by Valentina Bold Pdf

This book sheds new light on James Hogg, the Scottish poet (1770-1835), going beyond the 'Ettrick Shepherd' stereotype. By focussing on Hogg's poetry (Scottish Pastorals, The Queen's Wake, Jacobite Relics, Queen Hynde, Pilgrims of the Sun) it shows that his work, and the critical response to it, was significantly shaped by the concept of the autodidact: a working-class writer who was considered to be a poet of 'Nature's Making'. The image of the autodidact is pursued from its beginnings - Ramsay's Gentle Shepherd, Macpherson's Ossian, Burns as 'ploughman poet' - through its development in the nineteenth century, to its last gasps in the twentieth. Poets considered include Isobel Pagan, Janet Little, William Tennant, Allan Cunningham, Robert Tannahill, Janet Hamilton, Ellen Johnston, Elizabeth Hartley, Alexander Anderson, David Gray, David Wingate and James Young Geddes. Despite facing difficulties, autodidacts produced some of the most innovative and exciting poetry of the nineteenth century. The author argues that the autodidactic tradition, exemplified by Hogg, nurtured the creative vigour manifested in twentieth-century Scottish poetry. While Scotland's autodidacts shared poetic concerns and techniques, they were characterised, above all, by diversity of poetic voice.
