Description

Robert Burns and Pastoral offers a comprehensive reassessment of Robert Burns (1759-1796), one of the most innovative poets of the late eighteenth century and creator of the first modern vernacular style in British poetry. This Oxford University Press study challenges the long-standing marginalisation of Burns in English literary studies by demonstrating that his work extends far beyond Scottish interest. Nigel Leask interprets Burns's poetry as an innovative and critical engagement with pastoral traditions, revealing the linguistic sophistication and universal relevance of verses often dismissed as provincially incomprehensible. This scholarly examination repositions Burns alongside his contemporaries Pope and Blake, arguing for his central importance to British literary history and the development of modern poetic voice.

Key Features

Robert Burns and Pastoral provides a full-scale reassessment of Burns's complete writings by Oxford University Press scholars.

Nigel Leask challenges the mistaken view that Burns's poetry is linguistically incomprehensible and of limited geographic appeal.

The study interprets Burns's work as an innovative critical engagement with pastoral poetry and late eighteenth-century improvement ideology.

This Oxford publication positions Robert Burns (1759-1796) as arguably the most original British poet between Pope and Blake.
