Though Robert Fergusson published only one collection of poems during his lifetime, he was a fixture in the Scottish periodical press. Brown explores Fergusson's poetic output in its immediate periodical context, enabling a new understanding of Fergusson's contribution to poetry that also enlarges on our understanding of the Scottish periodical press and the political climate of Enlightenment Scotland.
