【摘要】：浪漫主义诗人威廉·华兹华斯曾认为,詹姆士·麦克弗森的伪作《奥西恩诗集》对英国文学没有丝毫影响,该作品毫无文学价值可言。事实上,出现在两卷本《华兹华斯诗集》卷首之《序言补充》中的上述论断并未真实传达华兹华斯的一贯创作思想。华兹华斯在其诗作中曾多次对《奥西恩诗集》做出积极回应,从其少年之作《埃斯威特湖谷》直至晚年的《序曲:或一位诗人心灵的成长》,其中不少措词和意象与《奥西恩诗集》有契合之处。华兹华斯直到花甲之年才私下表示对麦克弗森的感念,承认自己受益于麦克弗森颇多,感叹倘若没有后者对民谣的关注,许多民间诗歌恐怕早已消失殆尽。本文通过对史料的对照与考证指出麦克弗森的伪作虽被传统批评所诟病,但对英国浪漫主义的发展起到了推波助澜的作用。
[Abstract]:William Wordsworth, the Romantic poet, had argued that James McPherson's pseudo-book, the Book of Othian Poems, had no influence on English literature and that it had no literary value. The above arguments, which appear in the preamble at the beginning of the two volumes of Wordsworth's Poems, do not really convey Wordsworth's consistent creative thinking. Wordsworth has produced the Book of Osien's Poems many times in his poems. Very responsive. The prelude from his young work, Lake Esther Valley to his old age: or the growth of the soul of a poet. Many of the words and images coincide with the Book of Othieen. Wordsworth did not privately express his gratitude for Macpherson until the year of the Gardener, admitting that he had benefited a lot from Macpherson. Without the latter's attention to folk songs, many folk poems would have disappeared. This paper points out that Macpherson's fictional works have been criticized by traditional criticism through the comparison and textual research of historical data. However, the development of British romanticism has played a role in fuelling the flames.

【正文快照】： 詹姆士·麦克弗森的《奥西恩诗集》(Poems of Ossian)①是英国18世纪最有争议的伪作之一。其第一部诗作《芬格尔》(Fingal,1761)的《致读者》一文只有短短263个字,而强调身份的“译者”(translator)一词出现四次,首字母大写的“原作”(Originals)为三次。麦克弗森无非想通过
