This packed anthology contains a vast selection of literature in
Scots. From the Renaissance makars to contemporary authors,
together with work in translation from a number of different
languages, it gathers into one volume writers as diverse as Robert
Henryson, William Dunbar, Robert Fergusson, Robert Burns, Jean
Elliot, Walter Scott, Hugh MacDiarmid, Liz Lochead, Charles
Baudelaire and Feodor Dostoevsky, as well as some of the finest
anonymous ballads and songs ever composed. Arranged thematically
into topics such as love, home, death, jealousy, pride, ambition,
freedom, work and play, it gives teachers and students immense
scope both for comparative analysis and exploration of the main
concerns of individual authors. It is, therefore, not only a major
contribution to the study of Scots literature but a fascinating and
enjoyable tour through some of the greatest writing Scotland has
ever produced. Ideal for both students at upper secondary level and
beyond, as well as anyone wishing to indulge in the best in
Scottish literature.
