Craze for Ossian (1 янв 1760 г. – 1 янв 1765 г.)
Описание:
- James Macpherson claimed to have found the verses of a Gaelic poet from the Dark Ages- said to have introduced a new kind of sublime
- 'Ossian' wrote out of love which contrasted to Pope writing out of performance
- shifted feeling towards a consideration that actually comedy was a low form and not an intelligent activity, this highly emotive poetry was more accomplished
