Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Romantic Scottish Ballads and the Lady Wardlaw Heresy is a book written by Norval Clyne and published in 1859. The book is a collection of Scottish ballads, which are traditional songs that tell stories of love, adventure, and tragedy. These ballads are known for their strong emotions and vivid imagery, and are an important part of Scottish culture.In addition to the ballads themselves, Clyne also discusses the controversy surrounding Lady Wardlaw's version of the popular ballad ""Hardyknute."" Lady Wardlaw claimed to have written the ballad herself, but some scholars believe that she simply adapted an existing ballad. Clyne explores this controversy in depth, and provides evidence to support both sides of the argument.Overall, The Romantic Scottish Ballads and the Lady Wardlaw Heresy is a fascinating look at Scottish culture and the history of Scottish ballads. Whether you are a fan of traditional music or simply interested in the history of Scotland, this book is sure to be an engaging and informative read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
