Room at the Inn? Werther in Wahlheim

Indeed, it is doubtful whether he ever resides there at all
The Poems of Ossian and Related Works
This is the first modern edition of all Macpherson's Ossianic poetry, including Fragments of Ancient Poetry , Fingal and Temora - as well as his accompanying prefaces and dissertations, and Hugh Blair's Critical Dissertation on the Poems of Ossian . Based on the 1765 text of the Works of Ossian , major variants from the other editions are included, together with a comprehensive register of Ossianic names.
Hyperion, or the Hermit in Greece
Friedrich Hölderlin’s only novel, Hyperion (1797–99), is a fictional epistolary autobiography that juxtaposes narration with critical reflection. In this skilful translation, Gaskill conveys the beautiful music and rhythms of Hölderlin’s language to an English-speaking reader.

Patterns of misinformation have been allowed to become established and major research, such as the work of Gillies on Herder and Ossian, is too often simply bypassed. Nor are important primary sources, notably Hugh Blair's Critical Dissertation and Denis's translation of Ossian, consulted as they should be, given…
