	James Macpherson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		James Macpherson (October 27, 1736–February 17, 1796) was a Scottish poet, known as the "translator" of the Ossian cycle of poems.
		Macpherson is said to have challenged Johnson, who replied that he was not to be deterred from detecting what he thought a cheat by the menaces of a ruffian.
		After Macpherson's death, Malcolm Laing, in an appendix to his History of Scotland (1800), propounded the extreme view that the so-called Ossianic poems were altogether modern in origin, and that Macpherson's authorities were practically non-existent.

	Significant Scots - James MacPherson
		MACPHERSON, JAMES, a literary character of celebrity, was born at Ruthven, in the county of Inverness, in the latter end of the year 1738.
		Macpherson also directed by his will, that the sum of 300 pounds should be expended in erecting a monument to his memory in some conspicuous situation at Bellville, and that his body should be carried to London and be interred in Westminster Abbey.
		The argument deduced from Macpherson’s talents, as exhibited in his original works, to show that he could not be the author of the poems in question, is plausible; but the premises on which it is founded, are by no means of so incontrovertible a nature as to give us implicit confidence in the conclusion.

		Once Macpherson brought her to Lake Couchiching where I was covering the prestigious annual summer conference on public affairs and we lived aboard, shaking morning cobwebs by diving off her deck.
		Macpherson said once he'd watched Dief on television for a long time and "he has always given me the feeling of a Billy Sunday, a circus barker and a third-rate actor, all put together." The guy in the pub might vaguely feel the same way but couldn't express it.
		Macpherson saw himself from the start as a heckler, whenever he sees "wrongness." He would read the paper, and when he saw sham or pretension, he would draw.

	University of Delaware Library: Forging a Collection
		During the course of his travels in the Scottish Highlands, Macpherson claimed to have discovered fragments of an ancient epic poem, written in Gaelic, by "Ossian, the Son of Fingal." With the growing interest in primitivism and the rise of Scottish nationalism, his find was greeted with enthusiasm.
		Macpherson died in 1796 and, despite the controversy surrounding the Ossian poems, was buried in Westminster Abbey, not far from the grave of his harshest critic Samuel Johnson.
		Today, Macpherson's status as a forger is not disputed; however, his writing and the Ossian poems in particular are viewed as important, legitimate poetry of the period.

	Macpherson
		Despite the clan allegiance of Scottish Gillespies to Cluny, the Chief of Macpherson, the name rarely appears on the stones lying in the graveyards of the clan-land villages of Kingussie, Laggan or Newtonmore.
		It is quite possible that, long before the '45, Gillespies living within Macpherson clan lands in the Badenoch area changed their name to Macpherson by ascription between the mid 14th and 15th centuries.
		Scots Gillespies are bonded as an associated family of the Macpherson clan because of the 13th century progenitor of clan Chattan, the 'Clerich', Gillespic, and tracing the genealogy of his offspring, Gillicattan Mor Mac Gillespic, through the ages brings us to present day Macphersons.

		MacPherson states that the key symbol of the pretribulation rapture for Margaret Macdonald is the catching up of the two witnesses of Revelation 11 (p.
		MacPherson's speculation is without foundation; Edwards distinguishes the saints caught up from the two witnesses, both as to time (the saints caught up three years and a half before the witnesses killed) and identity.
		MacPherson also fails to inform his readers of Morgan Edwards linking the rapture to I Peter 4:17, "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God" (Edwards, p.

		James Macpherson (1736-1796) was born at Ruthven in Badenoch, Scotland.
