| Summary | "Journals of Dorothy Wordsworth, Vol. 1 (of 2)" by Dorothy Wordsworth is a collection of personal journals that provide an intimate glimpse into the life of the author, likely written in the late 18th to early 19th century. This volume features her observations and experiences while living with her brother, the poet William Wordsworth, and their contemporary, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, capturing the beauty of nature, domestic life, and the literary environment of the time. The journals shed light on both the mundane and the profound, showcasing Dorothy's reflections on her surroundings and her relationships. The opening of the journal begins on January 20, 1798, with Dorothy's vivid descriptions of the natural landscape around Alfoxden, where she and her brother have settled. She captures the interplay of light, weather, and changes in the seasons, providing detailed observations of plants, animals, and the beauty of the countryside. As she documents her daily walks and encounters with nature, the reader gains insight into her contemplative nature and her close bond with William. Dorothy’s journal serves as both a record of her life and a reflection of the Romantic era's profound appreciation for the natural world, hinting at the inspiration behind some of William's poetry.
