Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The Book of the Dean of Lismore is a very important manuscript witness to Gaelic literary culture in the early sixteenth century. A manuscript made by James MacGregor, Vicar of Fortingall in Perthshire, and Dean of Lismore in Argyll, probably under the patronage of the Campbell…s of Glenorchy. A scholarly introduction by James Skene, and a selection of 69 Gaelic poems. The poems are given in three forms: (1) their original Gaelic form (as they appear in the manuscript in their curious orthography); (2) in standard Gaelic orthography; (3) in English translation. Useful notes throughout. Ex library copy with usual wear marks, stamp on half-title page, damage to the front endpaper, but stitching is sound. Light pencil annotation to each poem, usefully helping the reader to connect the Gaelic original to its translation.
