Ossian

Ossian is an allegedly Old Gaelic epic from the Celtic mythology. These "songs of Ossian" have in fact written the Scotsman James Macpherson. As a model for the title figure, he sought out Oisín, the son of Fionn mac Cumhail. The songs are epic battles and the destinies of selected noble heroes who are mostly concerned with the salvation of the king. Ossian ist ein angeblich altgälisches Epos aus der keltischen Mythologie. Diese „Gesänge des Ossian“ hat in Wirklichkeit der Schotte James Macpherson geschrieben. Als namensgebendes Vorbild für die Titelfigur suchte er sich Oisín aus, den Sohn des Fionn mac Cumhail. Inhalt der Gesänge sind episch dargestellte Schlachten und die Schicksale auserwählter edler Helden, die sich meist um die Rettung von Königreichen bemühen.
