Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book questions the long-held assumption that the popular 'Romantic Scottish Ballads', including 'Sir Patrick Spence' and 'Gil Morrice', are ancient compositions. The author argues instead that they are largely the work of one mind, Elizabeth Halket, Lady Wardlaw, who amused herself with verse-making in the early 18th century. The book provides a detailed analysis of the ballads, comparing their language, style, and themes to support this theory. The author also examines the historical and literary context of the ballads, exploring their relationship to older traditional ballads and their influence on later Romantic poetry. Ultimately, this book challenges our understanding of the origins of some of Scotland's most beloved ballads, suggesting that they may be more recent and more the product of a single author than previously believed.
