1852 1ed Robert Burns Scottish Poetry Scotland Poems Pocket-size Currie Leavitt
“My love is like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June: My love is like the melody That's 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 1852 first edition of the works of Burns is a small, pocket-size example. The only Leavitt edition with a ‘life of Burns’ by James Currie.
