Опис
William Wordsworth (1770
1850) has long been one of the best known and best loved English poets. The Lyrical
Ballads, written with Coleridge, is a landmark in the history of
English romantic poetry. His celebration of nature and of the beauty and poetry
in the commonplace embody a unified and coherent vision that was profoundly
innovative.
This volume presents the poems in their order of composition
and in their earliest completed state, enabling the reader to trace
Wordsworth's poetic development and to share the experience of his
contemporaries. It includes a large sample of the finest lyrics, and also
longer narratives such as The Ruined
Cottage, Home at Grasmere, Peter
Bell, and the autobiographical masterpiece, The
Prelude (1805). All the major examples of Wordsworth's prose on
the subject of poetry are also included.
