'''Robert Burns''' (1759-1796) was a [[Scotland|Scottish]] poet, widely regarded as their national poet. A major cultural icon, he is regarded as a pioneer of [[Romanticism]]. He wrote both in English, and in Scottish dialects of varying strength and comprehensibility.
He is most famous for his compositions "Auld Lang Syne", and "Scots Wha Hae", about [[Robert the Bruce]] and the [[Battle of Bannockburn]].
His birthday, the 25th of January, is celebrated far beyond Scotland, as [[Burns Night]].
