Description
What kind of poet is Burns and what is special about him? It would no doubt be possible to repeat claims made in the past about 'Scotland's National Bard' but, in the final years of the twentieth century, it is time to focus on the essential qualities of Robert Burns the writer which endure and to set aside dated notions from two hundred years ago which are now merely history. Above all, he was an exceptionally gifted poet and songwriter, one who shares with the reader honesty and humour as primary values. Selected poems by Robert Burns with notes on the author and editor. This book also contains a chronology of the life and times of Robert Burns.
