Klappentext

This lovely collection of hundreds of verses from esteemed Romantic poets will stand out on your bookshelf.

Romanticism gained traction in the late 1700s as writers moved away from the intellectualism of the Enlightenment and toward more emotional and natural themes. The major works of the movement's five most famous poets---William Wordsworth, George Gordon Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, John Keats, and William Blake---are represented in this handsome volume that includes an exquisite heat-burnished cover, foil stamping, and full-color page edges. As one of the largest and most influential artistic movements in history, Romanticism valued intuition and pastoralism, and its themes are well represented in the verses of its stars.

Biografie (William Wordsworth (1908-1988))

William Wordsworth (1770-1850) was one of the most influential of the Romantic poets. He grew up in the Lake District, and was educated at Cambridge. His friendship with S.T. Coleridge led to their joint project, "Lyrical Ballads", which was published in 1798. At the same time, Wordsworth began work on what was to become "The Prelude", which was first published three months after his death, in 1850. He became poet laureate in 1843.
