Beschreibung
Pride and Passion: Robert Burns 1759-1796 by J. De Lancey Ferguson is a compelling and scholarly biography of Scotland's national poet, Robert Burns. This richly detailed study explores Burns's life, poetic genius, romantic entanglements, political sympathies, and enduring cultural legacy during the late eighteenth century. Ferguson examines the historical context of Burns's work, including the Scottish Enlightenment, rural life, revolutionary ideals, and the rise of Romanticism, offering deep insight into the poet's creative development and complex personality. Blending literary criticism with biographical narrative, the book illuminates Burns's major poems and songs while portraying the passions, struggles, and ambitions that shaped his short but influential life. Essential for readers of literary biography, Scottish history, Romantic literature, and eighteenth-century studies, this authoritative volume remains a significant contribution to Burns scholarship and British literary history.
