Marmion is an epic poem by Walter Scott about the Battle of Flodden (1513). It was published in 1808. Scott started writing Marmion, his second major work, in November 1806. When Archibald Constable, the publisher, learnt of this, he offered a thousand guineas for the copyright unseen. Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet, FRSE (15 August 1771 - 21 September 1832) was a Scottish historical novelist, playwright and poet with many contemporary readers in Europe, Australia, and North America. Scott's novels and poetry are still read, and many of his works remain classics of both English-language literature and of Scottish literature. Famous titles include Ivanhoe, Rob Roy, Old Mortality, The Lady of the Lake, Waverley, The Heart of Midlothian and The Bride of Lammermoor. Although primarily remembered for his extensive literary works and his political engagement, Scott was an advocate, judge and legal administrator by profession, and throughout his career combined his writing and editing work with his daily occupation as Clerk of Session and Sheriff-Depute of Selkirkshire. A prominent member of the Tory establishment in Edinburgh, Scott was an active member of the Highland Society and served a long term as President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (1820-32).... William Stewart Rose (1775 - 1843) was a British poet, translator and Member of Parliament, who held various Government offices. [1] He was born the second son of George Rose of Cuffnells in Hampshire, also a senior civil servant and MP. His elder brother was the diplomat and MP George Henry Rose. After being educated at Eton College and St John's College, Cambridge, [2] he entered Lincoln's Inn in 1796 to study law. Rose was successively appointed Surveyor of Green-wax Monies (1797-1800), Clerk of Pleas at the Exchequer (1797-1837) and Reading Clerk to the House of Lords (1800-1824). He was also the Member of Parliament (MP) for Christchurch from 1796 to 1800, partnering his father.[3] He translated the romance of Amadis de Gaul (1803), Partenopex de Blois (1807), etc., and from 1823-31 was occupied with the principal work of his life, his translations from the Italian, including the Orlando Furioso of Ariosto, in which he was encouraged by Sir Walter Scott, whose friend he was. He also produced a volume of poems, The Crusade of St. Louis (1810). In later life he suffered from paralysis and died an imbecile in 1843. He had married a Venetian woman but had no children.
