Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Seven Sages, In Scotish Metre brings a compact treasury of medieval counsel. Wisdom wears a Scottish voice.This narrative verse anthology gathers medieval Scottish poetry into a lively, patterned form that sits alongside middle English literature and the wider currents of early British literature. As one of Rolland of Dalkeith's works, it belongs to the long European tradition of the seven sages of rome, offering a wisdom tales collection of moral allegory stories and didactic medieval themes rendered in verse. The poems move with metre and purpose rather than sermon; they balance instruction with storytelling, making them approachable for casual readers while offering rich material for students of medieval literature and classic poetry enthusiasts studying form and historical context. The language retains an unmistakable vernacular energy - idiom, cadence and rhetorical flourish that reward attentive reading and invite performance. For courses, seminars or private study, the volume provides primary-text experience without the academic fog: clear language, memorable lines and a palpable sense of medieval pedagogy. The poems are made for the ear: their metrical movement rewards reading aloud and recalls the oral life of medieval Scots performance. Close reading reveals recurrent rhetorical patterns and the ways moral instruction is woven into entertaining narrative. Students preparing essays or comparative projects find fresh primary material; classic poetry enthusiasts gain access to an energetic regional voice that complements canonical Middle English texts.Placed against the backdrop of fifteenth-century Scotland, this title illuminates how continental narratives were refashioned in local voice and vernacular rhythm, a point of interest for scholars and readers curious about cultural exchange in the late Middle Ages. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Whether dipped into for lively tales or acquired as part of a library of Rolland of Dalkeith works, it rewards both casual reading and serious collection: readable, resonant, and deserving of renewed attention. Prepared for modern readership without flattening original character, the edition sits well on a student syllabus, a reading table or a collector's shelf.
