Title: Isle of Arran—New Historical Mythological & Geological Map—Tony van Breugel 1993 Description: Isle of Arran—New Historical Mythological and Geological Map'. A large colour pictorial bird’s-eye-view map of the Isle of Arran, richly illustrated with topography, settlements, geology, archaeology, folklore, and myth. Arran's dramatic landscape is animated with historical and allegorical detail in the tradition of modern British pictorial cartography. The map is bordered by a humorous Scots verse, “The Warrior, or How Mither Earth through Wrath Arran shaped,” issued “with apologies to McGonagall”—a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Victorian poet William McGonagall who gained notoriety as an extremelt bad poet. Written in a deliberately exaggerated, declamatory style, the poem blends geology, myth, and folk belief as affectionate parody rather than quotation. No separate author is credited, and the verse appears to have been composed specifically for the map. A glossary of Scots terms is included in the margins to aid the reader. . Tony van Breugel with "apologies to McGonagall". Published 1993. Large late 20th century pictorial bird's eye view map. Size 57 x 82 cm | 22.0 x 32.0 inches. Condition: Good; suitable for framing.
