Robert Burns

Robert Burns (1759-1796) was a Scottish poet and lyricist known for his contributions to Scottish literature. His most notable works include "Auld Lang Syne," "To a Mouse," and "Tam O'Shanter." Burns was a pioneer of the Romantic movement, using traditional Scottish dialect in his poetry to capture the beauty of everyday life and the struggles of the common man. His works often explore themes of love, nature, and social injustice. Burns' impact on Scottish literature is immense, as he is considered the national poet of Scotland. His most famous work, "Auld Lang Syne," is a beloved New Year's Eve anthem sung around the world. Burns' legacy continues to inspire poets and writers to this day.
