Abstract:

In the Roman Catholic Emancipation debate, William Wordsworth took the opposite view to his friend and patron Sir George Beaumont. Whilst Wordsworth's position as a committed anti-emancipationist is well-known, this essay explores the Beaumonts’ Catholic heritage and their political allegiances. This contextual material provides a backdrop for a reading of a previously un-noted document that Lady Beaumont sent to the Wordsworths in 1809: ‘An account of an English Hermit’. This pamphlet, by an unknown Anglican clergyman (Thomas Barnard), describes the life of an unknown nonjuror (Thomas Gardine

Abstract:

Dorothy Wordsworth's name, writing, and identity as an author are frequently subsumed in the plural of ‘The Wordsworths’, in her relationship as the sister of the poet, William Wordsworth. But Dorothy was a Romantic author in her own right. She wrote poetry, narratives, and journals. Nine of her journals have been published. In 1803, and again in 1822, she toured Scotland and recorded her journeys in Recollections of a Tour made in Scotland and Journal of My Second Tour in Scotland. This article considers Dorothy's two Scottish journals. It discusses them in the light of historical and literar

Abstract:

This paper explores how Wordsworth’s “The Ruined Cottage” embodies and directs the course that Romantic poetry will take, predating his poetic world, the meaning of his poetry, and the essence of poetic theory proclaimed in the Preface to his poetry collection, Lyrical Ballads. In doing so, this paper shall focus on the representation of nature and suffering, considering the dramatic frame as the focal point through which we can glimpse the transformation of Wordsworth’s thought. In “The Ruined Cottage” Wordsworth chooses an ordinary person, Margaret, as the subject matter for a tragic poem, a

Abstract:

William Wordsworth is one of the eminent poets of nature from England. English literature is deeply indebted to the contribution of Wordsworth in the field of poetry. Wordsworth thinks nature as a teacher and a source of spiritual guide. To him, nature is the storehouse of vitality and energy and it has the capability of healing power. Wordsworth often associated childhood with an instinctive connection to nature. Nature and human beings are closely associated that Wordsworth highlights. The influence of nature in Wordsworth’s poetry can be traced back in ancient “Rigveda”. In “Rigveda”, the n

Abstract:

William Wordsworth, a great poet from the English Romantic era, is celebrated for his deep portrayals and evocative emotions of the natural world. The majority of his poems center around elements in nature, serving as the primary vehicle to convey his contemplation on the world. Thus, the crux of this research is examining Wordsworth’s viewpoint on nature, namely via a meticulous analysis of the poem I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud. The research demonstrates that Wordsworth depicts nature as a conscious and emotive being via the use of anthropomorphic methods, as shown in his portrayal of daffodi

Abstract:

This essay discusses the reception of William Wordsworth in China and focuses on the case of the Chinese poet Xu Zhimo (徐志摩, 1897–1931). Xu gestures toward Wordsworth's ‘Tintern Abbey’ (1798) and The Prelude (1805) in his early poem ‘Cambridge, Farewell!’ (1923), his prose work ‘The Cambridge I Knew’ (1926), and his better-known poem titled ‘Second Farewell to Cambridge’ (1928). In a complex and non-derivative manner, Xu imagines Cambridge as a recurring space of memory and spiritual healing that possesses a shadow of Wordsworth's Tintern amidst fraught times in 1920s China.

Abstract:

This research paper examines the relationship between Arnold, Pater and modernism through the mediation of Wordsworth's ideas on education. Arnold's ideas on education are inspired by Wordsworth, and Arnold remains the most influential critic and theorist of education in the 'Wordsworthian tradition'. It is important to acknowledge the centrality of Arnold's ideas since Wordsworth's influence on later writers was largely mediated through Arnold's writings. Arnold echoes the best of Wordsworth in his best prose work, Culture and Anarchy. Education is a great help to culture as he says emphatica

Abstract:

In 1819 Shelley was moved to anger and derision when Wordsworth published Peter Bell. His satirical response was predicated on an ironically autobiographical interpretation of the poem, and in this respect, Shelley's reading of the poem merits further study with respect to both poets. Hazlitt, Keats, Lamb, and others, were quick to note the egotistical drive that informed Wordsworth's writing, but in Peter Bell the Third Shelley claimed that Wordsworth went far beyond that. He insisted that Wordsworth had unintentionally satirised himself with devastating accuracy in the manner of Thomas Moore

Abstract:

This essay reads the 1934 prose Autobiography of the twentieth-century British novelist John Cowper Powys as a parody of Wordsworth’s Prelude. It argues that Powys revises Wordsworth’s trajectory of emotional growth, loss and recovery in ways that sometimes endorse and more often satirise the poet’s youthful love of nature and his adult transcendental imaginings. In doing so, Powys anticipates the revisionary readings of recent critics who have interpreted Wordsworth’s ‘language of the sense’ in materialist terms. Powys represents Wordsworth as a poet of physical – and sexual – sensation, regi

Abstract:

What does it mean that Shelley publicly mourns the death a living Wordsworth in his poetry? This essay argues that Percy Bysshe Shelley's renunciation of a narrow concept of selfhood not only informs, but germinates, his psychological and political principles, and in the process shapes his response to William Wordsworth—not as an “egotistical” poet, but as one who paradoxically and enviably escapes mutability by being ontologically identified with forms of non-life. I argue that Shelley brilliantly (and correctly) attributes this position to Wordsworth's poetic thought through his own poetic t

Abstract:

Wordsworth is known as the poet of joy and hope, and to associate his name with death may seem at first strange. Yet, according to his own estimation, he was the poet not simply of joy but of “the very heart of man," of "human kind, and what we are”, of "men as they are men within themselves." Any vision of human nature which does not take into account the facts of mortality and bereavement is blinkered and inevitably inadequate and Wordsworth was committed to clarity of perception and the fullest insights of the Imagination. He did not shy away from the implications of “our mortal Nature”; th

This thesis examines how Wordsworth interacted with non-literary communities within Cumbria, his impact on these communities, and their impact on his work. Analysing texts from across Wordsworth’s lifetime, including published poetry and prose, manuscripts, and personal writing, my study charts how his engagement with Cumbrian communities changed and his portrayals of local life developed. It argues that there are three phases to his writing about local communities: ‘remembering’ (1790s), ‘experiencing’ (1800-8), and ‘determining’ (1808 onwards). In the first phase, his writing about communiti
