Robert Burns 25 January 1759 - 21 July 1796, also known familiarly as Rabbie Burns, the National Bard, Bard of Ayrshire and the Plowman Poet and various other names and epithets, was a Scottish poet and 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 writings his political or civil commentary is often at its bluntest.
About life.
• Born in Alloway, Ayrshire, Scotland, to a poor farming family. Despite material problems, parents took care of his good education. In 1783 he began to write poetry in a traditional style in the native dialect of Ayrshire. The poems were locally well received and in 1786 the local printing house in Kilmarnock published the volume Poems. He spent the last years in the town of Dumfries on the Solway Firth, collecting Scottish folk songs. Currently there is a house and a museum dedicated to the writer. He died at the age of 37 as a result of cardiac ailments that were the result of hard work on the farm since childhood. Shortly after his death, the widow and his children began to receive money for living from all over Scotland - proof of the society's appreciation.
