James Macpherson Knihy
James Macpherson je skotský autor, který se proslavil jako „překladatel“ epických básní známých jako Ossianský cyklus. Tvrdil, že objevil a přeložil starověké keltské eposy, z nichž nejznámější je báseň o hrdinovi Fingalovi. Tyto básně dosáhly mezinárodního úspěchu a byly považovány za keltský protějšek klasických autorů jako Homér. Dílo ovlivnilo mnoho spisovatelů, včetně mladého Waltera Scotta, a silně rezonovalo v německy mluvících zemích, kde inspirovalo básníky jako Goethe, a také v Maďarsku a Francii.
