About this listen
Whether you’ve never been to an former Burns Supper or you’re a long-time aficionado who knows the Address to a Haggis by heart, there’s always something new to learn about Robert Burns and his work.
With Burns Night just a few days away, Jackie is joined by two of Scotland’s most prominent Burns experts to dissect the ceremonial aspects of the celebration, the history of its traditions, and the true meaning of his poetry.
Professor Gerry Carruthers is the Francis Hutcheson Chair of Scottish Literature at the University of Glsagow, while Chris Waddell is the Learning Manager of the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum, which is run by the National Trust for Scotland.
You can find out more about the museum here. Or you can explore the Trust’s Burns Collection here.
