Description

Explore the connection between literature and the natural world in Romantic Ecology (Routledge Revivals): Wordsworth and the Environmental Tradition. Originally published in 1991, this work by Jonathan Bate offers a fresh look at the poetry of William Wordsworth through the lens of the English pastoral tradition. Bate challenges existing views that suggest Wordsworth was a reactionary poet disconnected from the economic realities of the Lake District. Instead, the text argues that the poet's politics were fundamentally green. By examining his work, Bate identifies Wordsworth as a primary ecological poet who created a vision of human integration with nature. This perspective provides important context for understanding how his writing helped shape later conservation movements. This Routledge Revival edition makes this essential literary study accessible to students, scholars, and readers interested in the history of environmental thought and English poetry.
