Why read it?
1 author picked The Mercat Anthology of Early Scottish Literature, 1375-1707 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I want to reveal to people the superb achievement of the medieval Scots Makars who produced arguably the greatest poetry anywhere in Europe or Britain between roughly 1450 to 1550. John Barbour, William Dunbar, Robert Henryson, Gavin Douglas, and Sir David Lyndsay are the greatest of them but there are more excellent exponents of Scots in this, one of its golden ages, and they are all represented here. I quote many of them in my book.
From Billy's list on celebrating the Scots language.
