Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Robert Burns Great men, great events, great epochs, it has been said, grow as we recede from them; and the rate at which they grow in the estimation of men is in some sort a measure of their greatness. Tried by this standard, Burns must be great indeed; for, during the eighty years that have passed since his death, men´s interest in the man himself and their estimate of his genius have been steadily in creasing. Each decade since he died has produced at least two biographies of him. When Mr. Carlyle wrote his well-known essay on Bums in 1828, he could already number six biographies of the Poet, which had been given to the world during the previous thirty years; and the interval between 1828 and the present day has added, in at least the same proportion, to their number. What it was in the man and in his circumstances that has attracted so much of the world´s interest to Burns, I must make one more attempt to describe.
