Synopsis
To read the collected poems of Wordsworth is to defeat the myth of the divided man, the revolutionary youth whose ardent idealism gave way to the tired rhetoric of the Tory place-holder.Wordsworth's life-work is a coherent whole, the parts of which are a single and organic opus of autobiographical confession depicting the growth of a poet's sensibility.
In this two-volume edition, containing Wordsworth complete works (apart from The Prelude, which appears seperately in this series), the editor has returned, as Wordsworth had himself wished, to the final copy of the texts prepared in the poet's lifetime. The poems, arranged in chronological order and showing the development of Wordsworth's themes and forms, are illuminated by the editor's extensive notes and by the inclusion of the Preface to the Lyrical Ballads.

About the Author
Seamus Heaney was born in County Derry in Northern Ireland. Death of a Naturalist, his first collection of poems, appeared in 1966, and was followed by poetry, criticism and translations which established him as the leading poet of his generation. In 1995 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, and twice won the Whitbread Book of the Year, for The Spirit Level (1996) and Beowulf (1999). Stepping Stones, a book of interviews conducted by Dennis O'Driscoll, appeared in 2008; Human Chain, his last volume of poems, was awarded the 2010 Forward Prize for Best Collection. He died in 2013.
