Abstract
First paragraph: This paper has grown out of a need to explore the problems of teaching Burns in my own setting, the University of Georgia, specifically in the contexts of British literature surveys, introductory literature courses, and Romantic literature courses. It is a lonely business. Recently I surveyed the faculty of my English department, only to discover that I am one of only two to have taught Burns in the past several years. Most say that, given time constraints, the choice is between Burns and Blake -- and Blake wins.
