Аннотация	Scottish emigrational poetic discourse of the XIXth century is an ambiguous and complex part of history, culture and literature of both countries: Scotland and the USA. Images of “former” Motherland (Scotland) and “new” Fatherland (the USA) are central and plot-forming in poems of Scottish poets-emigrants in the USA. The purpose of  the  paper is to determine integral and differential characteristics of artistic images of Scotland and the USA in the  Scottish poetic emigrational discourse. The material of the analysis is Scottish emigrational poetry of the  XIXth century. The paper involves such methods of investigation and analysis: comparative analysis and genre analysis. Comparative analysis reveals positive appraisal to be present in the descriptions of both countries. This appraisal is  created with the help of the choice of specific vocabulary. Scotland is often described with the help of “might” and “right”, the USA is characterized with “independence” and “justice”. There is no myth destruction in the artistic images of both Scotland and the USA. This can be explained by special position of a poet-emigrant: Scotland was his homeland no more and at the same time they were not the part of the USA. Positive appraisal in the description of Scotland and  the  USA has different reasons. The preference of Scotland is made subconsciously, they choose the USA rationally. Scottish urban landscape is dominant compared with urban American landscape and occurs in the poetic texts more often. The  patriotic myth is the dominant idea in the creation of the artistic images of Scotland and the USA.
