The Hugh MacDiarmid Anthology. Poems in Scots and English

Viac o knihe

Many literary critics agree that, with William Dunbar and Robert Burns, Hugh MacDiarmid is one of the three greatest Scottish poets. This volume, issued to mark MacDiarmid's eightieth birthday, constitutes the most representative selection of his work so far published. It begins with Sangschaw, first published in 1925, and ends with Akros No. 3, which first appeared in 1966. The anthology as a whole fully illustrates the scope of Scotland's greatest writer of the 20th Century and is a fitting tribute to Hugh MacDiarmid and his work.
