Sinopsis

The Kingis Quair is a poem written by James I, King of Scotland, in the 15th century. The poem tells the story of the King?s dream, in which he falls in love with a beautiful woman who he sees in a garden. The woman is later revealed to be an allegory for the King?s own soul, and the poem explores themes of love, faith, and the search for meaning in life. This edition of the poem, published in 1886, includes an introduction and notes by the editor, as well as a glossary of Middle English terms. The Kingis Quair is considered one of the most important works of medieval Scottish literature, and is a fascinating insight into the mind of one of Scotland?s most famous monarchs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
