Romantic Ecology (Routledge Revivals)

Více o knize

The book delves into the poetry of William Wordsworth, framing it within the enduring pastoral tradition of English Literature. Jonathan Bate challenges the notion that Wordsworth was a reactionary figure, instead presenting him as a politically engaged poet whose work conveys a fundamentally 'green' perspective. By reassessing Wordsworth's connection to the economic realities of the Lake District, the author highlights the ecological themes present in his poetry, offering a fresh interpretation of the poet's legacy.
