Robert Fergusson
Robert Fergusson is a Scottish poet. After formal studies at the University of St Andrews, Fergusson lived a bohemian life in Edinburgh, the city where he was born, at the time at the height of intellectual and cultural ferment in connection with his founding. Many of his surviving poems were printed from 1771 in Walter Ruddiman's Weekly Journal, and a collected work was first published as early as 1773. Despite his short life, his career had a huge impact, especially its impact on Robert Burns. He wrote both Scottish and Scottish, and it is his vivid and fluent writing in a later book for which he is largely praised.
