Beskrivelse af The Genuine History Of The Britons Asserted Against Mr. Macpherson (1773)
The Genuine History of the Britons Asserted Against Mr. Macpherson is a book written by John Whitaker in 1773. The book is a response to James Macpherson's work, which claimed to be translations of ancient Gaelic poetry. Macpherson's work, known as Ossian, was controversial because many believed that it was a forgery. Whitaker's book argues that Macpherson's work is not only a forgery but also an attack on the true history of the Britons. Whitaker presents evidence from ancient sources to support his claim that the Britons were a distinct people with a rich history that was being suppressed by Macpherson's work. The book is an important contribution to the debate over the authenticity of Ossian and the history of the Britons.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
