Excerpt from The Dialect of Robert Burns as Spoken in Central AyrshireIN the notable lack of special studies of the various dialects of Scotland, it is not remarkable that the vernacular of Ayrshire has hitherto failed to receive close attention, in spite of its being the native speech of the national poet. This neglect, no doubt, is mainly due to the fact that Burns in his writings made no attempt to reproduce the local dialect in any exact fashion, but unquestioningly adopted the standard which had been set by his predecessors in the field of Scottish poetry. It was well that he did so, for against the endeavour to reproduce in literature, and above all in poetry, the precise details of any dialect even genius itself may strive in vain. Burns wrote for his country and not merely for his native district, and his countrymen have rightly accepted his words in the form he gave to them, and have pronounced them according to their own habits and instincts.At the same time, Burns could not help being influenced by the speech which he daily heard around him, and the use of which was natural to him. Every now and then, behind the conventional spelling which he had learned from Ramsay and Fergusson, it is possible to detect the real sounds which were in his ears and on his lips. The tell-tale rhyme-words, when carefully considered, frequently reveal what Burns said, in contrast to what he wrote. On the surface, the rhymes in the poetry of Burns are remarkably lax, and many of them Cannot be made exact on any fixed system. Many more, however, are loose only in appearance, and become perfectly regular when the words are pronounced as any native of Ayrshire would utter them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This monograph offers a radical reconceptualization of the relationship between the poetics and practice of Robert Burns and reevaluates the nature of his role in the history of Scots. By drawing on ideas from twenty-first-century sociolinguistic theory, it seeks to transform the debate surrounding Burns’s language. Through a series of readings that explore the way in which Burns used and commented on the styles associated with different places, groups and genres, it demonstrates how languages, places, and the identities associated with both are, in Burns’s writing, subject to continual reinvention. In this respect, the study breaks with existing accounts of the subject, insofar as it presents Scots, English and the other languages used by Burns not as fixed, empirically-observable entities, but as ideas that were revised and remade through the poet’s work. Focusing on Burns’s poems, songs, letters, prefaces, and glossaries, the book pays special attention to the complex ways in which the author engaged with such issues as phonology, grammar, and the naming of languages. The Burns who emerges from this book is not the marginal figure of traditional accounts—an under-educated poet alienated from the philological mainstream—but rather a well-informed thinker who, more than any other contemporary writer, embodies the creative linguistic spirit of the eighteenth century.
