William Camden (1551 1623):
His "Britannia" is a
survey of the British islands written in elegant Latin. In 1605 he

Hugh MacDiarmid is the pen name of Christopher Murray Grieve
(Scottish
Gaelic: Crisdean Mac a' Ghreidhir) (August 11, 1892, Langholm[1] - September 9, 1978, Edinburgh[2]),
a significant Scottish poet of the 20th century. He was instrumental in creating a Scottish version of modernism and was a leading light in the Scottish Renaissance of the 20th century.
Unusually for a first generation modernist, he was a communist. Unusually for a communist, he was a committed Scottish
nationalist. He wrote both in English and in literary Scots (often referred to as Lallans).
As MacCaig said at his graveside in Langholm, "He would walk in my
mind as if it were a town and he a torchlight procession of one,
lighting up the streets ".
