Ossian (/ˈɒʃən, ˈɒsiən/; Gaelik Irlandia/Gaelik Skotlandia: Oisean) adalah narator dan diduga pengarang dari serangkaian puisi epik yang diterbitkan oleh penyair Skotlandia James Macpherson, awalnya dengan judul Fingal (1761) dan Temora (1763),[1] dan kemudian dipadukan dengan judul The Poems of Ossian. Macpherson mengklaim bahwa ia mengumpulkan bahan dari mulut ke mulut dalam bahasa Gaelik Skotlandia, yang dikatakan dari sumber-sumber kuno, dan bahwa karya tersebut adalah terjemahannya daribahan tersebut. Ossian berdasarkan pada Oisín, putra dari Finn atau Fionn mac Cumhaill, yang dianglikanisasi menjadi Finn McCool,[2] seorang sosok legenda yang menjadi karakter dalam mitologi Irlandia. Para kritikus kontemporer terbagi dalam pandangan mereka soal keotentikan karya tersebut, namun konsensus terkini menyatakan bahwa sebagian besar puisi-puisi tersebut dikomposisikan sendiri oleh Macpherson, yang sebagian tergambar pada puisi Gaelik tradisional yang dikumpulkan olehnya.[3]
Karya tersebut meraih ketenaran mancanegara, diterjemahkan ke dalam seluruh bahasa sastra Eropa dan sangat berpengaruh dalam perkembangan gerakan Romantis dan kebangkitan Gaelik.
