The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace (Modern English: The Acts and Deeds of the Illustrious and Valiant Champion Sir William Wallace), also known as The Wallace, is a long "romantic biographical" poem by the fifteenth-century Scottish makar of the name Blind Harry, probably at some time in the decade before 1488. As the title suggests, it commemorates and eulogises the life and actions of the Scottish freedom fighter William Wallace who lived a century and a half earlier. The poem is historically inaccurate, and mentions several events that never happened. For several hundred years following its publication, The Wallace was the second most popular book in Scotland after the Bible.

- The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Campioun Schir William Wallace, également connu sous le nom de The Wallace, est un long poème « biographique romantique » du makar écossais du XVe siècle du nom de Blind Harry, probablement au cours de la décennie 1480. Comme son titre l'indique, il commémore et fait l'éloge de la vie et des actions du combattant de la liberté écossais William Wallace qui a vécu un siècle et demi plus tôt. Le poème est historiquement inexact et mentionne plusieurs événements qui ne se sont jamais produits. The Wallace a été le deuxième livre le plus populaire d'Écosse après la Bible plusieurs centaines d'années après sa publication. (fr)

We lat ourslide throu verray sleuthfulnes,
And castis us ever till uther besynes.

That nevyr yeit to Scotland wald do gud,
But ever on fors and contrar haile thar will,
Quhow gret kyndnes thar has beyne kyth thaim till.

How they haff wrocht in to thar mychty pryde,
To hald Scotland at undyr evermar,
Bot God abuff has maid thar mycht to par.
Yhit we suld thynk one our bearis befor,
Of that parablys as now I say no mor.

Of worthi blude that ryngis in this regioune,
And hensfurth I will my proces hald,
Of Wilyham Wallas yhe haf hard beyne tald. (en)

Le poème est historiquement inexact et mentionne plusieurs événements qui ne se sont jamais produits. The Wallace a été le deuxième livre le plus populaire d'Écosse après la Bible plusieurs centaines d'années après sa publication. Le premier texte existant est une copie faite par John Ramsay, 1er Lord Bothwell en 1488, mais cette copie n'a pas de couverture et les dernières pages manquent, sans mention de Blind Harry en tant qu'auteur. La première mention de Blind Harry comme auteur de l'œuvre a été faite par John Mair dans son ouvrage de 1521 Historia Majoris Britanniae, tam Angliae quam Scotiae. Il a ensuite été réédité à la fin du XVIIIe siècle par le poète William Hamilton, en anglais contemporain. Cette version a également connu plus de 20 éditions, la dernière étant publiée en 1859. Le poème a été utilisé par le scénariste Randall Wallace pour écrire son scénario pour Braveheart (1995). (fr)
