Description

This edition of Robert Burns' poetry offers a wealth of information about his life and work, drawing on extensive scholarship and his own letters. It provides a fresh perspective on the poet's radical politics and his place in British literature.

Through this collection, we see Burns as a key figure in the revolutionary world of 1790s Britain, alongside poets such as Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, and Byron. The Canongate Burns also includes previously unpublished poems that reveal the poet's more radical views, as well as some of his most scandalous and humorous writings.

This major edition is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the full range of Burns' work and its historical context. It is a comprehensive and scholarly collection that will provide new insights into the life and poetry of Scotland's greatest poet.
