1880 BEAUTIFUL Robert BURNS Scottish Poetry & Lit Scotland Poems Cunningham



“My love is like a red, red rose Thats newly sprung in June: My love is like the melody Thats sweetly played in tune…”

– Robert Burns



Robert Burns was a Scottish poet and lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. He is regarded as a pioneer of the Romantic Movement and after his death became a great source of inspiration to the founders of both liberalism and socialism. A cultural icon in Scotland and among the Scottish Diaspora around the world, celebration of his life and work became almost a national charismatic cult during the 19th and 20th centuries, and his influence has long been strong on Scottish literature.



This fine Charles Daly edition includes correspondence and notes from Alan Cunningham. It is worth noting, however, that the binding and gold-leaf, decorative fore-edge pressing make this example a truly remarkable piece.
