| Sumario: | Nothing was more important to Wordsworth than tracing the evidence that affinities had been preserved between all the stages of the life of man. Here the author explores the ways in which the poet attempted as an artist to maintain such continuities and shows how revisitings of various kinds are at the heart of his creativity. He examines what binds Wordsworth's later, less well known poems to his earlier work. He explores how new poems frequently emerged from re-engagement with old, often serving as a sequel to or commentary from the more mature poet on his own earlier writing, and acts of self-borrowing and self-reference are plentiful. |
