They are realized in motifs of homesickness and motifs which are the characteristic feature of Scottish literature and folklore traditions. The motif of homesickness, which was not urgent for labour emigration of the XIXthcentury, is connected with the experience of XVIIIth century political emigration. Scottish folklore and literature motifs are connected with the poets’ genealogy traced to Irish, Scottish-Scots, Welsh, Anglo-Saxon, Norman traditions.
