William Wordsworth's description of poetry as "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings" is exemplified by the vivid use of imagery and sensory experience in his verse.

His childhood in Cumbria imbued the poet with a deep love of nature; and his youthful interest in politics inspired a passion for democracy and a hatred of tyranny. These qualities, together with those of spiritual and epistemological speculation, dominate his poetical and prose writings.

This collection features many of Wordsworth's most notable poems, including "Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey", "Ode: Intimations on Immortality", and "Composed upon Westminster Bridge", and is a perfect introduction to the works of one of the founding fathers of English Romantic poetry.

ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Great Poets Library brings together moving and inspiring verse from some of the greatest poets in history, presented with beautiful new cover designs with graphic motifs.
