Description
Robert Burns 1759 – 1796, also known as Rabbie Burns, Scotland's favourite son, the Ploughman Poet, Robden of Solway Firth, the Bard of Ayrshire and in Scotland as simply The Bard was a Scottish poet and a lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. He is the best known of the poets who have written in the Scots language, although much of his writing is also in English and a "light" Scots dialect, accessible to an audience beyond Scotland. He also wrote in standard English and in these pieces his political or civil commentary is often at its most blunt (courtesy of Wikipedia). This elegant statue of him stands in the forecourt of the State Library of South Australia.
