Résumé

In "Wallace; or, the Life and Acts of Sir William Wallace, of Ellerslie, " Blind Hary intricately weaves the heroic exploits of the Scottish patriot Sir William Wallace, a symbol of resistance against English subjugation. Written in the late 15th century, the text employs a narrative style reminiscent of medieval romance, infused with rich, lyrical language that evokes both the grandeur and tragedy of Wallace's life.
Hary'Äôs work situates itself within the context of rising Scottish nationalism, characterized by its use of vernacular Scots, appealing to the cultural and political sentiments of his contemporaries amid the turbulent backdrop of English invasion and internal strife. Blind Hary, a poet and chronicler believed to be partially sighted, immersed himself in the heroic tradition, drawing on folklore and earlier chronicles to craft a legendary portrayal of Wallace.
Living during a time of burgeoning Scottish identity, Hary's own experiences and cultural heritage informed his portrayal of Wallace as not only a warrior but also a symbol of Scottish pride and resilience against oppression, reflecting the collective ideals of his nation at the cusp of the Renaissance. This book is a compelling read for anyone interested in Scottish history, literature, and the enduring spirit of resistance.
Hary's evocative style and passionate storytelling invite readers to explore the valor and struggles of Wallace, making it an essential addition to the canon of historical narrative and a testament to the power of cultural identity.
