About this product
Product Information
Derick Thomson was one of the most influential personalities of Gaelic Scotland in the twentieth century. His poetry counts among the best written in the language; he founded the most important modern Gaelic journal, Gairm, and was the force behind many ventures aimed at the preservation and development of Gaelic. He made major contributions to Gaelic studies as an academic subject and his publications are still indispensable to all working in the field. Thomson's vision of the Gaelic revival is characterised by high standards, organisational and economic shrewdness, openness to second-language users, and broad European outlook. This is the very first book-length study devoted to Thomson and it explores his career within the context of the history of the Gaelic revival in Scotland and other minority-language movements in Europe

Reviews
An enriching and hugely readable evocation of one of Scotland's most influential yet underappreciated literary figures. Derick Thomson's impact across poetry, academia, publishing, and language activism has been significantly undervalued - until now. This is the most stimulating book on Gaelic literature I've read in years. If only more of modern Scotland's writers' contributions were explored with such an edifying blend of diligent research, intellectual lucidity, and human understanding., Lucid, thoughtful and comparative: the scale of Derick Thomson's achievement is now clear thanks to this Czech scholar's extraordinary work.

This is a comic book size booklet with no real information in it. Looks like it was written by a high school student. Terribly useless.
