Jacobite Reliques
Hogg's Jacobite Reliques is a collection of songs related to the Jacobite risings, compiled by James Hogg on commission from the Highland Society of London in 1817. Most of the songs in the collection are Jacobite, and a minority are Whig. A number of the songs were written or adapted by Robert Burns and scholars speculate as to how many of them were authored or at least substantially altered by Hogg himself.
After being revived by Ewan MacColl, several of the songs included gained new popularity in the 20th century through performances by musicians such as The Corries, Steeleye Span and Eddi Reader, among others – most notably Ye Jacobites (#34), Cam Ye O'er Frae France (#53) and Such a Parcel of Rogues in a Nation (#36).
Reliques was first published in 1819. An edited version was published as The Jacobite Relics of Scotland in 2002 (volume I ISBN 0-7486-1592-X; volume II ISBN 0-7486-1591-1). The full original book, now out of copyright, can be found on Google Books and is available for downloading as a pdf file.
