Selected Poems contains some of Wordsworth's most acclaimed and influential works including an extract from his magnus opus, The Prelude, alongside shorter poems such as 'I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud', 'To a Skylark' and 'Tintern Abbey'. Wordsworth's poems, more often than not written at his home in Grasmere in the beautiful English Lake District, are lyrical evocations of nature and divinity. They have a force and clarity of language akin to everyday speech which was revolutionary at the time.
Biografie
William Wordsworth (1770-1850) was one of the most influential of the Romantic poets. He grew up in the Lake District, and was educated at Cambridge. His friendship with S.T. Coleridge led to their joint project, "Lyrical Ballads", which was published in 1798. At the same time, Wordsworth began work on what was to become "The Prelude", which was first published three months after his death, in 1850. He became poet laureate in 1843.Mehr von William Wordswo...
