William Wordsworth.

Introduction :
William Wordsworth was one of the major English Romantic poet who with the Samuel Taylor Aldridge, help to launch the Romantic Age in English literature with there joint publication Lyrical Ballads. In his work he for the first time gave definition of poetry. As well as he talk about what is poet rather then what is poetry. Also talk about poetic process. Best example of poetic possess is his poem 'Deffodils.'


Definition of poem :  According to Wordsworth,
" Poetry is spontaneous overflow of powerful feeling recollect in tranquility."
Wordsworth  believed that when you look at something you have feeling for that thing. And letter when you are alone at that time you recollect all your memory and write a poem.

What is poet : when we look at the Wordsworth Lyrical Ballad (1798) we found that in his work he talk about the question what is poet rather than what is poetry. He describe the quality of poet.

The first quality about which Wordsworth talk is poet is man speaking to man. He believes that a poet is man speaking to man endowed with more lively sensibility, more enthusiasm and tenderness. Poet is a person who has a grater knowledge of human nature. He is endowed in more lively sensibility.

Poet is person who rejoices more then other man in spirit of life, habitually implled to creative volitions, passions and situation where he does not find them. He gets pleasure with the oneness of nature and man.

The another quality about which he talks is higher sensibility and imaginative power. We can say that,
" Poet is such a human being who is overall on on degree a far better human being than ordinary human being."
Poetic process : Letter on in his work Lyrical Ballad he talk about poetic proses.when he talk about poetic proses he decided it in to four parts.
1. Observation
2. Recollection
3. Contemplation
4. Imaginative excitement.
When we look at the definition of poem given by Wordsworth we found that this four par are visible in his definition.

When we look Wordsworth's poem " Most Sweet It Is with In Unuplifted Eyes"  The poem begins with the Traveller pacing around a path, looking at fair, green region surrounding him.
"To pace the ground, if path be there or none,
While a fair region round the traveller lies"
 Here we found his poetic prose's first part observation. Then we found that he could this thing with "soft and ideal" Unuplifted Eyes.

With this compression we found two part of poetic proses contemplation and imaginative excitement. We found contemplation here because we see that he nearly observe the nature and by his thoughtful nature he connect it with Unuplifted Eyes. Also when he compering things we found his imaginative excitements about the things around him.
