Book excerpt: Excerpt from Burnsiana, Vol. 2: A Collection of Literary Odds and Ends Relating to Robert Burns The compiler has been much gratified at the reception accorded to the first volume of this series. In no instance has it been unfavourably criticised, nor has the general usefulness or ultimate importance of the project been questioned. It is of course designed to make each volume superior to the one which preceded it, and a very cordial invitation is again extended to the lovers of Burns throughout the world, to assist with contributions, etc., in furtherance of this end. These contributions need not necessarily be original. Cuttings and extracts from Burns Scrap books (and there are thousands of such books in existence to-day), Old addresses, reminiscences, etc., etc., will be welcomed and made use of, provided that they are found to possess suflicient interest in connection with the subject. Thanks are due and are herewith sincerely tendered to the gentlemen who have contributed articles for the work. Especially do I thank the Rev. Arthur John Lockhart, (pastor Felix) of Cherryfield, Maine, Author of the Masque Of Minstrels, and various other beautiful and talented poems. This gentleman - who by the way is a great Burns enthusiast - has truly been unsparing in his efforts to make the present volume a successful one from a literary standpoint; and the contributions both original and selected, which he has furnished for its pages, must have consumed many of his leisure hours, but they attest the sincerity Of his wishes that the undertaking may become a valuable and popular publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Burns was by far and away the most iconic figure in nineteenth-century Scotland. Multiple editions of his works poured incessantly from the presses. Unprecedentedly large crowds gathered to commemorate him at huge festivals and at the unveiling of memorials. His work was at the heart of the palpable rise of Scottish-ness that swept Scotland from the 1840s through to the First World War, including demands for Home Rule. If Walter Scott imagined Scotland, Burns shaped it. He gave ordinary Scots in what had been one of the most socially uneven societies in Europe a sense of self-worth and dignity, and underpinned demands for political and social justice. In this major new book, Christopher Whatley describes the several contests there were to 'own' - and mould - Burns, from Tories through Radicals to middle-class urban improvers. But the Kirk condemned Burns as the Antichrist, deplored the Burns cult ('Burnomania') - a slur on a nation that prided itself on its strict Presbyterian inheritance. The result is a fascinating picture of the role Burns played after his death in shaping multiple facets of Scottish society.
