"Wordsworth" by F. W. H. Myers is a biographical account written in the late 19th century that delves into the life of the renowned English poet William Wordsworth. The book seeks to illuminate the experiences, influences, and philosophical views that shaped Wordsworth's poetry and character, drawing extensively from his own reflections and the recollections of those close to him, particularly his familial connections. The opening of the biography introduces readers to the author’s thoughtful approach to narrating Wordsworth’s life, emphasizing the importance of respect for the subject's privacy and dignity. It begins with Wordsworth's birth in 1770 in Cockermouth, influencing his early years characterized by personal loss and a deep connection to nature. The narrative unfolds into Wordsworth's school days, where he develops a love for literature and poetry, alongside a burgeoning appreciation for the natural world, which remains a significant theme throughout his life and works. The text highlights the impact of his formative experiences and relationships on his evolving philosophy and poetic vision, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of his later achievements in the subsequent chapters.
