Not Contained in Any Edition Hitherto Published (Glasgow, 1801) has a special significance. This short article describes a previously unnoticed Edinburgh issue of Stewart's book, from 1809, and explores Walter Scott's connection with the book's reappearance, when Ballantyne and Co. bought unsold sheets of the Glasgow second issue, put copies in a further variant binding, and advertised it in their own catalogue, quoting praise from Walter Scott, the firm's unacknowledged majority shareholder, for Burns's 'contraband' poems, notably 'Holy Willie's Prayer' and 'The Jolly Beggars'. Some cheap Edinburgh editions had previously reprinted pirated poems, but Ballantyne's reissue, known only in one privately-owned copy, and Scott's comments, mark the first endorsement of the Glasgow piracies by the Edinburgh publishing establishment. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Scottish Literary Review is the property of Association for Scottish Literary Studies and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
