By 1933, [[John Lorne Campbell]] published the groundbreaking book ''Highland Songs of the Forty-Five'', consisting of 32 Gaelic song-poems, which were analyzed for political content, annotated, and published with facing translations into English [[blank verse]], or unrhymed [[iambic pentameter]]; the real cultural, political, and religious reasons for the [[Jacobite rising of 1745]] had been obscured by the novels of Sir [[Walter Scott]] and [[Robert Louis Stevenson]], who both depicted, "the Highlander as a [[tragic hero|romantic hero]] fighting for a lost cause."<ref>Ray Perman (2013), ''The Man Who Gave Away His Island: A Life of John Lorne Campbell'', [[Birlinn Limited]]. Pages 23-26.</ref> In response, Campbell set out to give, "a voice to the voiceless - ordinary men who had never been allowed to speak for themselves".<ref name="Ray Perman 2013 Page 26">Ray Perman (2013), ''The Man Who Gave Away His Island: A Life of John Lorne Campbell'', [[Birlinn Limited]].

As Campbell's volume and his later published writings revealed to the [[Anglosphere|English-speaking world]], within [[Scottish Gaelic literature]], Jacobite ideology and the events of the risings inspired the immortal poetry of [[Iain Lom]], [[Sìleas na Ceapaich]], [[Alasdair Mac Mhaighstir Alasdair]], [[Iain Mac Fhearchair]], [[Catriona Nic Fhearghais]], [[John Roy Stuart|Iain Ruadh Stùibhart]], and [[William Ross (poet)|William Ross]]. Despite also composing immortal poetry of his own about fighting for the government in the [[Campbell of Argyll Militia]] during the [[Battle of Falkirk Muir]] in 1746,<ref> John Lorne Campbell (1979), ''Highland Songs of the Forty-Five'', [[Arno Press]], New York City. pp. 193-225.</ref> their contemporary, [[Duncan Ban MacIntyre]], offers in his later poetry, according to Campbell, "an interesting testimony to the bitter disillusionment of the Highlanders who had come to the aid of the Government, to be in the end treated no better that those who had rebelled against it."<ref> John Lorne Campbell (1979), ''Highland Songs of the Forty-Five'', [[Arno Press]], New York City. pp. 194-195.</ref>
