Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saoir air a chuairt: From Glen Orchy to Dublin, calling at Edinburgh, London, and Copenhagen

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract / Description of output

This paper examines the process by which some compositions of the Scottish Gaelic poet Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saoir (1724–1812) came to be published in a late eighteenth-century anthology of Irish poetry. In doing so it aims to elucidate the status of Donnchadh Bàn as a literary figure outside Scotland, and to tease out a variety of interesting personal connections between extensive networks of late eighteenth-century European and Anglo-Irish antiquarian scholars.
