The authenticity of Macpherson’s collection was already controversially judged, when it came, translated in several European languages, to the continent. The author was said having written the poems himself instead collecting and translating them from ancient Gaelic sources. Nevertheless, the work was highly appreciated in the German Romanticism and had immense influence to writers as Ludwig Tieck or Clemens von Brentano. Review by Samuel Johnson from Bosswell's LOJ. "These peices have been, and will I think during my life continue to be to me, the source of daily and exalted pleasures. The tender, and the sublime emotions of the mind were never before so finely wrought up by human hand. I am not ashamed to own that I think this rude bard of the North the greatest Poet that has ever existed. Merely for the pleasure of reading his works I am become desirous of learning the language in which he sung and of possessing his songs in their original form." — Thomas Jefferson to Charles McPherson, February 25, 1773 [PTJ 1:96-97] nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
