Last year was the bicentenary of the death of Robert Burns, who is Scotland's best known poet. January 25, Burns' birth date, is also a well-known celebration to the Scottish-the famous 'Burns Night'. Burns wrote many songs and poems, but his 'Address to the Toothache' is of particular interest to dentists. The poem provides a vivid account of one man's experience of toothache and gives an insight into how people regarded pain two hundred years ago.
去年是苏格兰最著名诗人罗伯特·彭斯逝世200周年。1月25日是彭斯的生日,这一天对苏格兰人来说也是一个著名的节日——著名的“彭斯之夜”。彭斯创作了许多歌曲和诗歌,而他的《致牙痛》对牙医来说尤其有趣。这首诗生动地描述了一个人牙痛的经历,让我们得以洞察两百年前人们对疼痛的看法。
