Blackwood and Sons & rebound in dark blue cloth with a 45-page introduction & contents list to the front & a large section of notes to the poems to the rear. Alexander Montgomerie (c. 1550Â 1598) was a Scottish Jacobean courtier and poet, or makar, born in Ayrshire. He was one of the principal members of the Castalian Band, a circle of poets in the court of James VI in the 1580s which included the king himself. Montgomerie was for a time in favour as one of the king's "favourites". He was a Catholic in a largely Protestant court and his involvement in political controversy led to his expulsion as an outlaw in the mid-1590s. Montgomerie's poetry, much of which examines themes of love, includes autobiographical sonnets and foreshadows the later metaphysical poets in England. He is sometimes, by tradition, given the epithet "Captain". First Thus. Size: Large Octavo. 57 + 432 pages. Text is in Scots. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. Gilt titles spine.
