''An Answer To William Shaw�������s Reply To Mr. Clark, On The Subject Of Ossian Poems'' is a book written by John Clark in 1783. The book is a response to William Shaw’s criticism of Clark’s earlier work on the famous Ossian poems. The Ossian poems were a collection of Scottish Gaelic poems that were translated into English by James Macpherson in the 18th century. The authenticity of these poems was a subject of debate among scholars, and Clark had written a book defending their authenticity. However, Shaw had written a scathing reply, questioning the validity of Clark’s arguments. In this book, Clark responds to Shaw’s criticism and defends his position on the Ossian poems. He provides detailed evidence and arguments to support his claims and refutes Shaw’s arguments. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Ossian poems and the debate surrounding their authenticity.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.
