Autorenporträt
Robert Burns (1759-1796) was a Scottish poet and lyricist, widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland. He was born into a farming family in Alloway, Ayrshire, Scotland. Despite his humble background, Burns was well-educated and began writing poetry at an early age. His first collection, "Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish Dialect," was published in 1786 and was an immediate success. Burns is best known for his poems and songs that celebrate Scottish culture and identity, such as "Auld Lang Syne," "Tam o' Shanter," and "To a Mouse." His work often dealt with themes of love, nature, politics, and social justice. Throughout his life, Burns struggled with poverty and financial difficulties. He worked as a farmer and exciseman (tax collector) to support his family. He died at the age of 37 due to heart disease. Despite his short life, Burns had a significant impact on Scottish literature and culture. His work has been translated into many languages and continues to be celebrated around the world. Burns Night, held annually on January 25th, is a traditional Scottish holiday that honors his life and work.
