Excerpt from Robert Burns But otherwise the story of Burns's life has been told with such minuteness of detail, that the internal evidence of his poetry would seem only to be called in to verify or correct the verdict of tradition and the garbled gossip of those wise after the fact of his fame. It is so easy after a man has compelled the attention of the world to fill up the empty years of his life when he was all unknown to fame, with illustrative anecdotes and almost forgotten incidents, revealed and coloured by the light of after events! This is a penalty of genius, and it is sometimes called fame, as if fame were a gift given of the world out of a boundless and unintelligent curiosity, and not the life-record or work achieved. It is easier to collect ana and to make them into the patchwork pattern of a life than to read the character of the man in his writings; and patchwork, of necessity, has more of colour than the homespun web of a peasant-poet.

Excerpt from Selections From the Poems of Robert Burns In the character of Robert Bums there is much to love and to honor, and much to pity and to blame. His genius was recognized even during his life, and it made the Ayrshire farmer welcome in the highest Edinburgh society. But his social disposition, and the very love in which he was held among the people, led him into all kinds of excesses and dissipations. William Burnes, the father of the poet, was an honest, hardworking farmer, of an intelligence superior to the average of his class. He was a man of strong religious convictions, and was held in the highest esteem and reverence by his son, who honors his memory in that beautiful picture of ideal domestic peasant life, "The Cotter's Saturday Night." Robert Burns was born in 1759, in a humble two-roomed cottage on the banks of the Doon, near the town of Ayr - "Auld Ayr, wham ne'er a town surpasses, For honest men and bonie lasses."

Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Robert Burns Liar not men of reflection think it a superfluous labour to trace the rise and progress ofa character like Robert Burns. Born in the condition ofa peasant, he rose by the force ofhis own mind into distinction and influence; and in his works he has exhibited what are so rarely found, the charms of original genius. With a deep knowledge of the human heart, his poetry exhibits high powers of imagination: it displays, and as it were embalms', the peculiar manners of his country; and it may be considered as a monument, not to his name only, but to the expiring genius of an ancient and once independent nation.

Excerpt from Robert Burns: With Twelve Illustrations Fully set forth by Dr. Charles Rogers in his Book of Burns, 1891. The poet's paternal descent was from a line of tenant-farmers in Kincardineshire, which can be traced back to the beginning Of the seventeenth century. A varying tradition that the first Kincardineshire ancestor was a fugitive Argyllshire Walter Campbell, who adopted the name Burnhouse - afterwards changed to Burness - from the place Of his birth or his new resid ence, is hardly reconcilable with ascertained facts.

Excerpt from The Complete Poetical Works of Robert Burns Tun present edition of Burus'a Complete Poetical Works conforms with the other volumes in the Cambridge series Longfellow, Whittier, Browning, Holmes, and Lowell as regards mechanical features and general treatment, but its edito rial equipment is drawn entirely from the Centenary Burns edited by Messrs. W. E. Henley and T. F. Henderson. By arrangement with Messrs. T. C. E. C. Jack of Edinburgh, the publishers of that work, Messrs. Houghton, Mimin Co. Assumed the publication of the four volumes in America, and also secured the right of issuing the work in one volume in general uniformity with their Cambridge edi tions. The plan of the Centenary Burns was that of a definitive edition. The editors not only reprinted all of the known poems of Burns, but were able to collect some poems not before included. They used a careful judgment in the choice of texts, and accomymied each poem with a minute record of other readings, so that the edition is a variorum one. Not only this; they traced the origin of each poem and gave a full history of its evolution, where, as in many cases, Burns had adapted an existing song to his own use. They explained, moreover, in prefatory and other notes, the personal, historical, and local references, and they supplied a glos nary of terms as well as copious indexes. Finally, Mr. Henley summed up the editorial judgment in an essay at once critical and biographical. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
