Mehr zum Buch

David Simpson reinterprets Wordsworth's legacy by emphasizing the significance of the public sphere and social context in understanding his poetry. Rather than viewing Wordsworth solely as a poet of nature and solitude, Simpson analyzes key poems, revealing a complex interplay between private and public experiences. His exploration challenges the traditional perception, arguing for a more nuanced understanding of Wordsworth's imaginative authenticity, suggesting that there is no singular public persona in his work.
