Wordsworth

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.
