This book looks at 12 works written by Robert Burns which were inspired by Nature. A number of these works were written in 1787 during Robert's 'Grand Tour' of the highlands, others were written a little closer to home... We look at the works themselves, give a modern translation of each one and look at when, where and possibly, why they were written. This gives you quick, easy to understand information about Burns poetry and also about the man himself. One of the biggest problems with reading Burns poetry is the language he used, specifically the scots words and dialects, which can be difficult to understand. To help with this there is a full modern English translation of each poem directly after the original poem. There is also an extensive glossary of scots words and their modern English equivalent included. This is the second book in the "Enjoying Robert Burns" series.

While recent scholarship has usefully positioned Burns within the context of British Romanticism as a spokesperson of Scottish national identity, Robert Burns and Transatlantic Culture considers Burns's impact in the United States, Canada, and South America, where he has served variously as a site of cultural memory and of creative negotiation. Ambitious in its scope, the volume is divided into five sections that explore: transatlantic concerns in Burns's own work, Burns's early publication in North America, Burns's reception in the Americas, Burns's creation as a site of cultural memory, and extra-literary remediations of Burns, including contemporary digital representations. By tracing the transatlantic modulations of the poet and songwriter and his works, Robert Burns and Transatlantic Culture sheds new light on the circuits connecting Scotland and Britain with the evolving cultures of the Americas from the late eighteenth century to the present.
