Reverend George Gilfillan byl skotský autor, editor a básník, který se proslavil svými literárními eseji a kritickými rozpravami. Jeho díla často zkoumala témata poezie a literární historie, přičemž se snažil oslavovat a analyzovat literární odkaz biblických postav. Gilfillanovy snahy o oživení starší poezie a jeho rozsáhlé editorské práce na edicích britských básníků ukázaly jeho hluboký zájem o uchování literárního dědictví. Jeho literární odkaz spočívá v jeho schopnosti propojit teologické a literární zkoumání, a tím obohatit chápání spojení mezi duchovním a uměleckým vyjádřením.
