Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of language and its impact on national identity, focusing on the historical and cultural nuances of the Scottish dialect. Set against the backdrop of a newly unified Great Britain in the late 18th century, the author embarks on a meticulous exp…loration of the distinctions between Scottish and English speech. The text meticulously dissects the evolution of the Scottish dialect, tracing its origins to Old English with influences from Gaelic and French. The author sheds light on the social and political factors that shaped the language, including historical tensions between England and Scotland, and the influence of a shared monarch. With a keen eye for detail, this book examines specific vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammatical structures unique to the Scottish dialect, offering insights into their origins and historical usage. The author skillfully compares and contrasts these linguistic features with their English counterparts, highlighting the subtle yet significant differences that contribute to distinct cultural identities. By illuminating the intricacies of the Scottish dialect, this book underscores the profound role language plays in shaping national consciousness and fostering a sense of belonging. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

In den WarenkorbFour works in one volume, 8vo, pp. [ii], ii, '179' (misnumbered for 193); viii, 189, [1] errata; 118, [121]-140 (as printed: no text lost despite error in pagination); viii, 243, [1] errata; fine copies bound together in contemporary half calf over marbled boards, spine with morocco label ('Miscellanies'), with stencil initial '…F' below (perhaps the sixth in a series of such volumes). A fine collective volume from the library of the judge and author Alexander Fraser Tytler, with his signature on the first title page, a list of the contents in his hand and notes on three of the four title pages. Tytler (1747-1813) was the son of the historian William Tytler but trained as a lawyer, rising to become a Lord of Session as Lord Woodhouselee (1802). But he was passionately attached to Scottish literature and history, and alongside his legal career was also Professor of Universal History at Edinburgh from 1780 onwards. This volume perfectly reflects his antiquarian interests in all aspects of Scottish literature. The first is a collection of two old poems usually attributed to two kings of Scotland, James V (1512-42) and James I (1394-1437): the edition is the first of either poem with any pretensions to scholarship. It would have been of particular interest to A.F. Tytler because the following year his father produced an edition of James I's poetry (Edinburgh, Balfour, 1783), and it is perhaps no surprise that Tytler was able to add to the title page that Callander's co-editor was David Doig (1719-1800), the learned schoolmaster of Stirling, who contributed much of the annotation to the first poem. The second work is easily the rarest in the volume: Davidson's Thoughts on the Seasons is recorded by ESTC online in only four copies, with none at the British Library and only one outside Britain (at UCLA). Tytler has read and thought about this book, because he has annotated the title page: 'A work of very considerable merit & of original genius. The Dialect is that of Kirkcudbright or Galloway'. Written in blank verse and in four books, one for each season (Davidson is conscious of treading in Thomson's footsteps), the poetry is intended 'to copy Nature', as the author says in his preface; there is also a glossary of dialect words at the very end, and a poem to 'William Burney, a brother poet'. The book was published by John Murray in London, who retained his links with Scottish authors. See Zachs, The first John Murray (1998), checklist item 713. The third work is the first publication of the advocate and poet James Grahame (1765-1811), who later impressed Walter Scott with his poem The Sabbath. ESTC lists a prior edition of the preceding year, with the imprint 'London: printed in the year 1793', and extending to 131pp only - just one copy is listed, at the University of British Columbia. It seems certain that the present edition is a reissue rather than a reprint, because despite the fact that it extends to 140pp, the list of contents only takes us as far as p. 130. To make this reissue, the final seven leaves (pp. 119-[132]) of the original edition must have been cancelled, and ten more leaves printed, Q-R4 and S2 - but these were mispaginated, beginning on p. 121 instead of 119. The final work in the volume is by Robert Alves (1745-94), friend of James Beattie, whom he met when he was educated at the Marischal College, Aberdeen: it is one of his few publications.
