Small-8°, paperback edition. Zustand: Gut. 55 pages, frontispiece, text in English, table of contents, browned due to age and signs of use, No poet is less in need of an interpreter than Wordsworth. There are certainly poems in this selection which will not yield their meaning until they have been many times read, but for the most part Wordsworth makes himself abundantly plain. Some poets, including many of the best ones, conceal the clues to ther meaning as deviously as a be taken generally at their face value. Even whenthe theme is a profound or difficult as immortality, his statement of it is seldom complicated, for Wordsworts poetry camemore fromthe heart than from the intellect.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Reissued with New Introduction. Paperback. Slight crease to corner front cover. Introduction by Jenni Calder. Wordsworth's poetry reveals his close affinity to the natural world in which he discerned a sense of moral purpose. And, in his contemplation of people, too, he constantly sought the meaning in their fate. A deeply religious man, he saw poetry as a gift for interpreting these preoccupations and perhaps, above all, as the perfect medium for the expression of 'emotion recollected in tranquility'. This volume contains a selection of his best-known verse including two long excerpts from his great autobiographical poems, The Prelude and The Excursion. 192 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
