Opis

Probing the philosophical foundations of Wordsworth’s religious outlook, this book takes its reader on a journey into the mind of the poet who happened to record in his verse the rise to prominence of some of the most troublesome uncertainties which have defined Western culture for the last three centuries.

Recenzje

“This book is written with a passion that is unusual in academic criticism. It has a clear and coherent argument, but it is nuanced and discriminating as well as bold. It is rigorous, in its close attention to the minute particulars of Wordsworth’s craftsmanship, but it is also lively, witty, and consistently a pleasure to read.” Heather Glen, University of Cambridge, UK.
