Description & Specifications

First published in July 1850, shortly after the death of Wordsworth, the poetry "The Prelude" was the culmination of over fifty years of creative work. The great romantic poem of human consciousness focuses on the theme "the growth of a poet's mind": leading the reader back to the defining moments of his childhood and youth, as well as his experiences as a radical student in France during the Revolution. Initially inspired by Coleridge's urging to write a work about the French Revolution, "The Prelude" has ultimately become one of the most remarkable examples of poetic autobiography ever written. A fascinating examination of the self, it also presents a comprehensive view of the poet's creative vision.
