Three languages in one literary work
28th November
A unique literary work will be launched in Edinburgh tomorrow night which brings together the Gaelic, Scots and English languages.
The Skye-based poet Angus Peter Campbell’s first poetry collection for 15 years contains 67 new Gaelic poems, alongside Scots-language versions by the renowned scholar and translator J Derrick McClure, and English-language translations by the poet himself.
In his introduction to the collection, the modernist poet, Professor Donald MacAulay describes the poems as “innovative, thought-provoking and rich in language and imagery”.
