Critical Essays on William Wordsworth (Critical Essays on British Literature) [Large Print]

By George H. Gilpin

This first collection of criticism on the British poet to appear in 18 years includes several critical essays on each of his major works - Lyrical Ballads (1798), Ode: Intimations of Immortality (1807) and The Prelude (1850) - as well as essays on his life and writing in general. Contributors include established scholars M.H. Abrams and Carl Woodring and newer scholars Susan Wolfson and Richard Matiak. Among the highlights is an new essay by Alan Grob responding to recent controversy over whether Wordsworth's ideology was radical or reactionary.
