Description

First published in 1991 and reissued as part of Routledge Revivals, this landmark study reassesses William Wordsworth's poetry within the context of English literature's pastoral tradition. Jonathan Bate challenges conventional critical interpretations that dismiss Wordsworth as reactionary, demonstrating instead that the poet's political vision was fundamentally ecological. By examining Wordsworth's life and work in his native Lake District, Bate argues that Wordsworth emerged as literature's first truly environmental poet, articulating a profound and lasting vision of human integration with nature. This influential analysis reveals how Wordsworth's ecological sensibility shaped the conservation movement and environmental thought that followed. Essential reading for scholars of Romantic literature, environmental history, and the intersection of poetry with ecological philosophy, this Routledge edition provides fresh perspective on how poetic language can advance green political consciousness and our understanding of humanity's relationship with the natural world.
