Robert Burns Biography and Works (Most Famous Scottish Poet)

Who is Robert Burns? Detailed biography, life story of Robert Burns. Information on Robert Burns works, poems and philosophy.

Robert Burns; (1759-1796), Scottish poet, who was the most famous poet writing in the Scottish vernacular. However, today he is little read, and less understood. Even the Scots talk about him more than they study him. His greatest patriotic work, the Songs, is almost wholly neglected. Even among scholars he is frequently listed as a “preromantic” instead of what he was, the last great exemplar of Scottish vernacular poetry. A first-rate mind among second-raters, a traditional Scot in a day when his countrymen were aping the English, a liberal among Tories, a fiercely proud plebeian in a society based on family and rank, Burns was misunderstood when he was alive and is still misunderstood today.
