Allan Ramsay Poet Allan Ramsay was born in the remote Lanarkshire village of Leadhills in 1685. Around 1704 he moved to Edinburgh and became an apprentice wigmaker. Completing his apprenticeship in 1709, Ramsay became a Burgess the following year and opened a shop in the Grassmarket. During this period Scotland was in a sad state of decline. Politically weakened by the Act of Union (1707) she was also in danger of cultural domination by England. Ramsay, a strong nationalist, became increasingly involved in Edinburgh intellectual and literary circles from 1710 on. In 1712 he co-founded the Easy Club a society with strong Jacobite leanings which met to discuss literature and politics. Many of Ramsay's early poems received their first public airing when read aloud to club members. Although sympathetic to the cause, Ramsay had no involvement in either the 1715 or 1745 Jacobite uprisings. By 1720 Ramsay's interest in literature was such that he abandoned wigmaking and became a bookseller. In 1725 he moved to premises in the High Street where he opened what is generally regarded as Britain's first circulating library.

Allan Ramsay was born in LeadhilIs (Lanarkahire) on 15 October 1684. His father, who was factor (estate manager) to the Earl of Hopeton, died soon after the birth, and Ramsay's mother subsequently married a farmer. In the early 1700's Ramsay was apprenticed to an Edinburgh wig maker, and in 1710 he opened his own shop in the Grassmarket. In 1712 he co-founded the Easy Club, a literary society with Jacobite leanings, for which he adopted the pseudonyms "Isaac Bickerstaff" (taken from Swift) and "Gawin Douglas". Despite his Jacobite sympathies and strong nationalist views, however, Ramsay took no part in the 1715 uprising. In 1720 he became a bookseller, first at a shop in Niddry's Wynd (Niddry St) and then from 1726 at another shop in the Luckenbooths on the High Street near St Giles, where he created (in 1728) what is generally considered to have been Britain's first circulating library. By then he had already established himself as a poet (his first collection was published in 1721). In those days publishers and booksellers were effectively equivalent, and Ramsay was in a good position to promote his own work. He also edited and anthologised the writing of others, most notably in

Under Two Flags, Puck, Two Little Wooden Shoes, In a Winter City, In Maremma . She also wrote a book of stories for children, Bimbi . Occasionally she shows considerable power, but on the whole her writings have an unhealthy tone, want reality, and are not likely to have any permanent place in literature. Ramsay, Allan , a humorous poem sometimes attributed to James I., and in 1719 he became a bookseller, his shop being a meeting-place of the literati of the city. A collected edition. of his poems appeared in 1720, among the subscribers to which were Pope, Steele, Arbuthnot, and Gay. It was followed by Fables and Tales , and other poems. In 1724 he began the The Table Miscellany , a collection of new Scots songs set to old melodies, and the Evergreen , a collection of old Scots poems with which Ramsay as editor took great liberties. This was a kind of work for which he was not qualified, and in which he was far from successful. The Gentle Shepherd , by far his best known and most meritorious work, appeared in 1725, and had an immediate popularity which, to a certain extent, it retains. It is a pastoral drama, and abounds in character, unaffected sentiment, and vivid description. After this success Ramsay, satisfied with his reputation, produced nothing more of importance. He was the first to introduce the circulating library into Scotland, and among his other enterprises was an unsuccessful attempt to establish a theatre in Edinburgh On the whole his life was a happy and successful one, and he had the advantage of a cheerful, sanguine, and contented spirit. His foible was an innocent and good-natured vanity.

Summary of: Allan Ramsay and the Search for Horace's Villa, edited by Bernard D. Frischer and Iain Gordon Brown with contributions by Bernard Frischer, Iain Gordon Brown, Patricia R. Andrew, John Dixon Hunt and Martin Goalen (Ashgate, London, 2001). ISBN 07546 0004 1. Published with the assistance of the Getty Grant Program. The Sabine Villa of the Roman poet Horace, celebrated in his verse as an arcadia of rural simplicity and contentment, was a place embedded in the Western consciousness both as an ideal and as an actual, physical site. The location of the villa was fixed by seventeenth-century scholraship as lying most probably in the hills north-east of Tivoli. For the British in particular the Sabine farm had a special resonance, and by the age of the Grand Tour its general district came to be visited by enterprising travellers. Foremost among these was the great Scottish portrait painter Allan Ramsay, who was distinguished also as a classical scholar, archaeologist and man of letters. Ramsay's account of the villa in its landscape - both actual and 'literary' - is published here for the first time. Preceding the text are eight studies by experts on Horace's Villa, Ramsay, and the other topics addressed by Ramsay's text.
