Description

Re-Reading The Excursion: Narrative, Response and the Wordsworthian Dramatic Voice offers a fresh perspective on one of the most significant long poems in the Wordsworthian canon. Part of the Nineteenth Century Series by Routledge, this study provides a new critical understanding of how the poem functions within literary history. Sally Bushell challenges long-standing critical views that have shaped the perception of The Excursion throughout much of the twentieth century. Rather than viewing the work through a Coleridgean lens as a purely didactic text, Bushell examines the poem's unique dramatic form. This approach reveals how the poem uses its narrative structure to engage readers and encourage active thought. This book is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in nineteenth-century literature and the development of poetic philosophy. By shifting the focus from traditional definitions of didacticism to the poem's specific dramatic voice, this work helps redefine the place of The Excursion in modern literary study.
