The suppers are normally held on or near
the poet's birthday, 25 January, sometimes also known as
Robert
Burns Day (or Robbie Burns Day or Rabbie Burns
Day) or Burns Night , although they may in
principle be held at any time of the year.
A Burns supper
is a celebration
of the life
and poetry of the poet
Robert Burns,
author of many
Scots poems.
Слайд 3
Background of the celebration
Robert Burns was born in
Alloway, Scotland,
on January 25, 1759. He died in
Dumfries, Scotland,
on July 21, 1796. He was a bard (poet) and wrote many
poems, lyrics and other pieces that addressed political
and civil issues. Perhaps his best known work is "Auld
Lang Syne", which is sung at New Year’s Eve celebrations in Scotland, parts of the United Kingdom, and other places around the world. Burns is one of Scotland's important cultural icons and is well known
among Scottish expats or descendants around
the world.
Слайд 4
Burns suppers are
most common in
Scotland and
Northern
Ireland. Now they are
held by people and
organizations
with Scottish
origins worldwide,
particularly in Australia,
Canada, England, and the
United States.
There is a strong tradition in southern
New Zealand's main city Dunedin, of which Burns‘
nephew Thomas Burns was a founding father.
Слайд 5
What do people do?
Many people
and organizations
hold
a Burns‘ supper on or around Burns'
Night. These
may
be informal or formal, only for men, only for women, or for both genders.
Ceremonies during a Burns' Night supper vary according
to the group organizing the event and the location.
Слайд 6
Burns suppers typically
include haggis
(a traditional Scottish
dish celebrated by Burns in Address to a Haggis),
Scotch whisky,
and the recitation of Burns's poetry.
Formal dinners are hosted by
organizations such as Burns clubs, the Freemasons,
or St Andrew’s Societies and occasionally end with
dancing when ladies are present. Formal suppers
follow a standard format.
What do people do?
Слайд 7
At Burns' Night events, many men wear kilts
and women may wear shawls, skirts or dresses made
from their family tartan. Particular patterns and combinations of colors were associated with different areas, clans and families.
What do people put on?
Слайд 8
The Scottish flag is often displayed at Burns'
Night celebrations. It is known as the Saltire and
consists of a rectangular blue background with thick white bars on the diagonals. The diagonals form a cross that represents Saint Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland.

1. Start of the evening
(piping
in the guests)
Guests gather, exchange the latest news,
discuss the latest Burns’ editions and study whisky collection. The chairman of the Burns’ Society and the host of the celebration acquaint guests with each other,
distribute the roles among guests of literary readings.
Слайд 11
2. Opening remarks
The host says a few words
welcoming everyone to the supper and perhaps stating the
reason for it.
The event is declared open.
Слайд 12
2. 1. The Selkirk Grace
All of the guests
are seated and the Selkirk Grace is said, a
well-known thanksgiving said before meals, using the Scots language. It came to be called the
Selkirk Grace because Burns was said to have
delivered it at a dinner given by the Earl of
Selkirk.
Слайд 13
After ‘The Selkirk Grace” the supper begins.
It
starts with the soup course. Normally a Scottish soup
such
as Scotch Broth, Potato Soup or Cock-a-Leekie
is served.

2.3 “Piping” of the haggis
This is always a
haggis on a large dish. It is usually
brought in by the cook, generally while a piper
plays bagpipes and leads the way to the host's
table, where the haggis is laid down.
As soon as the first part of the meal is over,
the Parade of the Haggis has been announced.
Everyone stands as the main course is brought in.
Слайд 15
2.4 Address to a Haggis
The host, or perhaps
a guest with a talent,
recites “The Address to
a Haggis”
Слайд 16
At the line His knife see rustic Labour
dicht
the speaker normally draws and sharpens a knife,
and at the line An' cut you up wi' ready slicht, plunges
it into the haggis and cuts it open from end to end. When
done properly this "ceremony" is a highlight of the
evening. At the end of the poem, a Scotch whisky toast
will be proposed to the haggis.
3. Supper
Слайд 17
The haggis is traditionally served with mashed
potatoes
(tatties) and mashed turnips
(A Scottish 'turnip' is an English
'swede') (neeps).
A dessert course, cheese courses, coffee, etc. may also be
part of the meal. For dessert may be cranachan or
Tipsy Laird (whisky trifle)

tatties and
neeps

3. Supper
Слайд 18
4. Immortal Memory
One of the guests gives
a short speech, remembering
some aspect of Burns' life
or poetry.
This may be light-hearted or intensely
serious. A good speaker always
prepares a speech with his audience
in mind, since above all the Burns'
supper should be entertaining. Typically an Immortal
Memory speech lasts about 20 to 25 minutes,
sometimes more. After the speech everyone drinks a
toast to Robert Burns.
Слайд 19
5. Burns’ songs
Singers are invited to perform songs
by R. Burns during the evening. Musical interludes usually
punctuate the readings and speeches that take
place to provide a balanced program.
Слайд 20
6. Lost Manuscript Fragment
It’s time for the unique
ritual – the demonstration of the lost manuscript fragment.
Everyone has the opportunity to get acquainted with the artifact.
Слайд 21
7. Toast to the Lassies
This was originally a
short
speech (it normally lasts 15 minutes) given by
a male guest in
thanks to the women who had
prepared the meal. However,
nowadays it is much more
wide-ranging and generally covers
the male speaker's view on women.
It is normally amusing but not
offensive. The men drink a toast
to the women's health.
Слайд 22
8. Response from the Lassies
This is occasionally (and
humorously) called the "Toast to the Laddies" and, like
the previous toast, it is generally quite wide-ranging nowadays. A female guest will give her views on men.
Like the previous speech, this should be amusing, but
not offensive. Quite often the speakers giving
this toast and the previous one will collaborate
so that the two toasts complement each other.
Слайд 23
9. Works by R. Burns
If the guest isn’t
ready, the host offers him / her to read
any of the poem.
Foreign guests can also be invited to sing or say works from their land.
All the guests read, recite or sing their favourite
works by R. Burns. Everyone tries to participate
in this part of the celebration.
Слайд 24
As part of the programme there will normally
be
about four readings of Burns's work. Readings are
often
accompanied with appropriate theatrics and those invited
to deliver the readings are often very skilled at what they
do. Some of them even dress in costume for the reading.
9. Works by R. Burns
Слайд 25
9. Works by R. Burns
The most favourite R.Burns’
poems for reciting are
Tam O’Shanter,
Address to the Unco
Guid, To a Mouse
and Holy Willie’s Prayer
Слайд 26
Since R. Burns liked to play jokes and
have a time
cheerfully, it’s normally to remember some
national
features of Scottish people and smile at them. Also all
the participants of the Burns’ supper perform national Scottish dances.
9. Works by R. Burns
Слайд 27
10. Vote of Thanks
At the end of
the evening someone will propose
a vote of thanks
to the artists and speakers.
This is an onerous task as the person nominated must spend the evening making notes of what everyone has done and trying to write a witty, 10 minute script about this.
For this person it often means that no serious drinking can be done as he has to stay alert and listen to all that is said.
The vote of thanks signals
the end of the evenings formal proceedings
but the celebrations can continue into the morning.
Слайд 28
11. Closing
The Burns’s supper culmination is the joint
performance
“Auld Lang Syne“ when all the guests stand,
join hands,
and sing this song ringing the evening to an end.
