2.0 out of 5 stars
Very "concise" edition -- more than half of the pages are Burns poetry.,
By Washtublibrarian "Washtublibrarian" (Buffalo, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Edinburgh Anthology of Scottish Literature Concise Edition (Paperback)
This volume is almost exclusively devoted to the poetry of Robert Burns -- excerpts by James MacPherson (from Fragments of Ancient Poetry) and Hugh Blair (from the critical dissertion on Ossian), as well as one play by Joanna Baillie (De Monfort) and the essay "Signs of the Times" by Thomas Carlyle are the only other texts present. For someone interested in an anthology of Scottish literature, there are many far more comprehensive anthologies out there. If you would like a volume of Burns poetry, there are collections of his complete works available which might suit your needs better.
