Zusammenfassung: | "Inspired by me American and French Revolutions and moulded by the Scottish Enlightenment, Robert Burns was in several senses the first of the great Romantics. With a poet's insight and a shrewd sense of human drama, Robert Crawford outlines how Burns combined a childhood steeped in the peasant song-culture of rural Scotland with a consummate linguistic artistry to become not only the world's most popular love poet but also the controversial master poet of modern democracy."--BOOK JACKET. |

writer is more charismatic than Robert
Burns. Wonderfully readable, The Bard catches
Bums s energy, brilliance and radicalism as never
before. To his international admirers he was a
genius, a hero, a warm-hearted friend; yet to
the mother of one of his lovers he was a wastrel,
to a fellow poet he was sprung
...
from raking
of dung , and to his political enemies a traitor .
Drawing on a surprising variety of untapped
sources
—
from rediscovered poetry by Burns to
manuscript journals, correspondence, interviews
and oratory by his contemporaries
—
this new
biography presents the remarkable life, loves
and straggles of the great poet.
Inspired by the American and French Revolutions
and moulded by the Scottish Enlightenment,
Burns was in several senses the first of the great
Romantics. With
a poeťs
insight and a shrewd
sense of human drama, Robert Crawford outlines
how Burns combined a childhood steeped in the
peasant song-culture of rural Scotland with a
consummate linguistic artistry to become
not only the world s most popular love poet
but also the controversial master poet of
modem democracy.
Written with accessible elan and nuanced
attention to Bums s poems and letters, The Bard
is the story of an extraordinary man fighting to
maintain a sly sense of integrity in the face of
overwhelming pressures. This incisive biography
startlingly demonstrates why the life and work of
Scotland« greatest poet stffl compel the attention
of the world a quarter of a millennium
after his birth.
