Wallace

"Wallace" is a significant literary work written in the 15th century that has since gained widespread popularity and influence. The poem tells the heroic story of the swordsman Wallace and has established itself as a symbol of freedom and independence in many countries and cultures. Unlike many aristocratic narratives of the time, Blind Harry's poem provides a poignant insight into the harsh realities of war, including the brutality of battles, injuries, and betrayal, from the soldiers' perspective. This edition, edited by Anne McKim, is considered the definitive version of this epic work and is the result of years of scholarly research.
