Wordsworth Writing

Meer over het boek

Bennett reexamines Wordsworth's poetic process, arguing that writing, rather than mere oral composition, is central to his work. The study delves into various facets of Wordsworth's compositional methods, including revision, dictation, and his own theories on writing. By challenging the misconception that Wordsworth primarily relied on oral modes, Bennett reveals how writing shapes both the poet's identity and the thematic depth of his major poems, leading to fresh interpretations and insights into his literary contributions.
