Description

William Wordsworth is chiefly remembered as one of the Lake Poets. Yet he was also one of the founders of English Romanticism, a writer whose early revolutionary fervor imbued his verse and his ideals.

Much of Wordsworths work was inspired by nature, but to a style rich in lyrical imagery he brought a deep interest in liberal humanitarianism and a profound concern for the lives, habits and speech of ordinary people, especially country people.

This pocket-sized collection includes: I wandered lonely as a cloud (Daffodils), Ode. Intimations of Immortality, Character of the Happy Warrior, The Solitary Reaper, To a Sky-Lark, Tintern Abbey, and extracts from The Prelude.

Also available in the 'Pocket Poets' series:

9781782437116 Keats: 'Ode to a Nightingale' and Other Poems
9781782437109 Kipling: 'If' and Other Poems
9781782437093 Burns: 'A Red, Red Rose' and Other Poems
