Sinopsis de THE SONGS OF RANILD

In "The Songs of Ranild," George Borrow delves into the rich tapestry of English and Celtic folklore, crafting a unique narrative interwoven with lyrical verses that echo the traditions of balladry and oral storytelling. The book stands as a testament to Borrows fascination with the cultural nuances of the British Isles, showcasing a literary style that marries romanticism with a vivid embodiment of folk culture. Through a series of evocative poems, Borrow explores themes of love, nature, and the supernatural, all while illuminating the profound connections between language and identity in 19th-century England. George Borrow, a noted linguist and traveler, had a deep-seated passion for the languages and cultures he encountered on his journeys. His experiences with the Romani people and his immersion in the Welsh landscape profoundly influenced his writing. "The Songs of Ranild" is not only a reflection of BorrowÄôs literary talents but also an exploration of his belief in the power of folklore as a conduit for cultural expression and spiritual insight, stemming from his lifelong quest for unity between the sacred and the secular. Given its blend of poetic lyricism and cultural depth, "The Songs of Ranild" is essential for readers interested in the intersections of folklore, history, and literary artistry. BorrowÄôs nuanced portrayals and rich imagery offer an invitation to explore the cultural heritage of Britain, making this book a valuable addition to the library of any aficionado of poetry and folklore.

Escrito por George Borrow


George Borrow (East Dereham, 1803), viaxeiro, tradutor e escritor, manifesta dende novo o seu interese por coñecer as linguas do mundo. Aprende galés, danés, hebreo, árabe, armenio e alemán. Fai traducións e inicia unha vida errante que o leva a percorrer Inglaterra, onde entra en relación coa Sociedade Bíblica Británica e Estranxeira e, por conta dela, marcha a Rusia para aprender a lingua tártaro-manchú e traducir o Novo Testamento. Unha vez publicado, decide distribuílo el mesmo, percorrendo España metro a metro. Viaxa por Galicia durante o verán de 1837. En 1842 remata The Bible in Spain, o libro que tanta sona lle había de dar e do que agora Xerais publica a parte referida a Galicia.
