	A Biographical Sketch by blupete: William Wordsworth (1770-1850).
		Wordsworth's spirit -- through the heat, pressure and cooling of these years, from 1793 to 1796 -- was to be formed into that of a poet, able to meld those parts or elements of himself to those parts or elements of that of the natural world on which he had achieved a unique perspective.
		Wordsworth defined poetry as follows: "Poetry is the breath and finer spirit of all knowledge; the impassioned expression which is in the countenance of all science." For Wordsworth -- and the same can also be said of Shelley, Keats, and Coleridge -- "Nature is an inexhaustible source and provocative of lovely imaginings.
		Wordsworth in his attachment to groves and fields, we cannot extend the same admiration to their inhabitants, or to the manners of a country life in general.

	Rzepka, 'Elizabeth Bishop and the Wordsworth of _Lyrical Ballads_: Sentimentalism, Straw Men, and Misprision' - The ...
		Elizabeth Bishop's affinities with William Wordsworth were remarked long before her death in 1979.
		The one extends her family circle to embrace the graves of her dead siblings, the other believes her dead cousin Arthur has been invited by the English Royal family to be "the smallest page at court." Neither comprehends the terrible finality of death.
		It is Wordsworth's manifold poetic achievement, I think, that makes him so tempting a target for critical misprision--that is, in its basic, etymological sense, selective "mis-taking." Selectivity is not necessarily a fault--indeed criticism is impossible without it.

	Miall -- Prelude: Abstract 11
		Kathleen Blake depicts a mutual poetic admiration between Elizabeth Barrett Browning and William Wordsworth, although "while Wordsworth speaks of the lineage from 'father to son' amongst poets," Barrett Browning's gender "precluded so direct an inheritance" and she was "too self-consciously a woman poet to underestimate sexual difference".
		While human separation and loss afflict Wordsworth in the poem, Blake explains that most critics agree that the "problematic for Wordsworth" is that he attempts to establish a mutual relationship between mind and world and that any disruption between the two troubles him.
		Blake observes that love is necessary to poetry for both men and women, as Wordsworth and Barrett Browning demonstrate, but Aurora must renounce love in order to have the opportunity to express herself, even though her poetic expression suffers due to lack of love.
