Selected Poetry of William Wordsworth represents Wordsworth's prolific output, from the poems first published in Lyrical Ballads in 1798 that changed the face of English poetry to the late "Yarrow Revisited." Wordsworth's poetry is celebrated for its deep feeling, its use of ordinary speech, the love of nature it expresses, and its representation of commonplace things and events. As Matthew Arnold notes, "[Wordsworth's poetry] is great because of the extraordinary power with which [he] feels the joy offered to us in nature, the joy offered to us in the simple elementary affections and duties."

About William Wordsworth

William Wordsworth (1770–1850) was an English poet born in Cockermouth, Cumberland, and a founding figure of English Romanticism. With Samuel Taylor Coleridge he co-authored Lyrical Ballads (1798), which included a Preface in its 1800 edition. His long autobiographical poem The Prelude, composed over much of his adult life, was published posthumously in 1850. Other works include Tintern Abbey, Ode: Intimations of Immortality, and the sonnet The World Is Too Much with Us. He was appointed Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom in 1843.
