Robert Jamieson Bücher
Robert Jamieson war ein schottischer Antiquar und Sammler von Balladen, dessen sorgfältige Arbeit viel mündliche Überlieferung bewahrte, die sonst verloren gegangen wäre. Seine umfangreiche Sammlung traditioneller Balladen und Lieder, ergänzt durch eigene lyrische Kompositionen, enthüllte faszinierende Verbindungen zwischen schottischen und skandinavischen Legenden. Jamiesons akribische Forschung und seine Fähigkeit, Verbindungen zwischen unterschiedlichen kulturellen Traditionen aufzudecken, brachten ihm die Wertschätzung seiner Zeitgenossen ein und hinterließen ein bleibendes Erbe auf dem Gebiet der Folklore-Sammlung und -Studie.
