The Bible serves Wordsworth as a basis for his poetry and poetics,
providing language, images, figures, and importantly, a paradigm of
poetic genres. Working from three interrelated critical approaches
- intertextuality, poetics, and metaphysics - Westbrook first
analyzes Wordsworth's theory and practice as these reflect the New
Testament doctrine of the Incarnation. Subsequent chapters consider
Wordsworth's adaptation of biblical narrative forms - etymological
tales, parables, and mystical allegories. Closing chapters examine
some extraordinary linguistic innovations in Wordsworth's revisions
of biblical apocalypse, techniques that permit the poet to express
the ineffable and to reveal nothing.
