Inspired by Englands Lake District， William Wordsworth （1770-1850）created some of the best-loved poems of the Romantic period. In The Preludehe described his youth and schooling， and the death of both his parentswhen he was just a child. Wordsworth was separated from his sister， Dorothy，at that time. but was reunited with her in 1795. Her private diaries and cher-ished companionship inspired many of his works， and she lived with herbrother and his family until his death. Together they formed a literary three-some with poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge， who lived near them for much oftheir lives.In this fascinating biography， the author traces the details of Wordsworthslife - his studies at Cambridge， his early travels in France and his passionatesupport of the French Revolution， his return to the Lake District， and hismarriage and children - that have such a presence in his autobiographicalpoems. Wordsworths work had a tremendous influence on his contempo-raries， such as Shelley and Keats， and on later generations of poets.This authoritative introduction to .Wordsworths life and work is filled with awide variety of photographs， portraits， and paintings， as well as originalmanuscripts from the British Library， the Wordsworth Trust， and othersources.
