Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Selected Poems of Robert Burns: Edited, With Introduction and Notes The life of Burns should be known as a whole, the poems in detail. This little book aspires to tell the general reader all he need know of the poet´s life, but to tempt him to a fuller first-hand knowledge of the poet´s work. As far as possible the origin and setting of each poem have been given that it may thus be identified with his life and become its own interpreter. Apart from a glossary, few notes have been added except by way of analysis or critical comment. The charm of a song often vanishes when you would find its cause, as the voice of a bird is lost forever when you dissect its throat. Better that something now and then should be obscure than that the critics coldness should chill the life-blood of a pulsating lyric and leave it a frozen crystal. The purpose and plan of the book is clear, and should the reader desire more of notes and explanations he may find them in the large editions by Currie, Cunningham, Wallace, etc., or in the tributes to Burns by Carlyle, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Campbell, Scott, Emerson, Lockhart, and others.
