The intellectual scope and cultural impact of British writers cannot be assessed without reference to their 'European' fortunes. This collection of 20 essays, prepared by an international team of scholars, critics and translators, records the ways in which Macpherson's Ossian has been received, translated and published in different areas of Europe. The Ossian poems caused a sensation on their first appearance in the early 1760's. Indeed, there is hardly a major Romantic poet on whom they failed to make a significant impression. The essays brought together in this volume explore the reception of Ossian in a wide range of European countries, in both literary and non-literary forms of reception and in the work of both individual writers and national literary cultures.

James Macphersons Ossian zählt im späten 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhundert zu den wichtigsten Werken der Weltliteratur. Dabei stilisiert man den keltischen Barden zum "Homer des Nordens" (Madame de Staël) und seine Poesie zur "Mutter der Romantik" (Uhland, Jean Paul). Indem Ossian mit 'süßer Wehmut' auf die Vergangenheit zurückblickt und die Distanz zum Ideal ästhetisch kompensiert, stellt er zugleich das'Urbild' des sentimentalischen Dichters dar. Die vorliegende Arbeit unternimmt erstmals eine Gesamtdarstellung der deutschen "Ossianomanie" und macht wichtiges Textmaterial zugänglich. Grundlage hierfür bietet eine poststrukturalistische Vermittlung wirkungsästhetischer und diskursanalytischer Modelle.Band 1 behandelt die Poems of Ossian, die zeitgenössischen Diskurse sowie die Frühphase der Rezeption; Band 2 befasst sich mit der Haupt- und der Spätphase der Rezeption. Die Bände 3 und 4 präsentieren die rezeptionssteuernden deutschen Übersetzungen sowie die wichtigsten Rezeptionszeugen.
