Wordsworth: 'Daffodils' and Other Poems

Whether wandering the hills or whiling away an hour waiting for a train, no reader can fail to be touched by the lyrical, evocative beauty of William Wordsworth’s verse contained in this anthology. <p><b>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.</b><br><br>Much of Wordsworth’s 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.<br><br>This pocket-sized collection includes: ‘I wandered lonely as a cloud’ (‘Daffodils’), ‘Ode. Intimations of Immortality’, ‘Character of the Happy Warrior’, ‘The Solitary Reaper’, ‘To a Sky-Lark’, ‘Tintern Abbey’, and extracts from ‘The Prelude’.<br><br><b>Also available in the 'Pocket Poets' series:</b><br><br>9781782437116 Keats: 'Ode to a Nightingale' and Other Poems<br>9781782437109 Kipling: 'If–' and Other Poems <br>9781782437093 Burns: 'A Red, Red Rose' and Other Poems</p>
