First published in 1991, Romantic Ecology reassesses the poetry of
William Wordsworth in the context of the abiding pastoral tradition
in English Literature. Jonathan Bate explores the politics of
poetry and argues that contrary to critics who suggest that the
Wordsworth was a reactionary who failed to represent the harsh
economic reality of his native Lake District, the poet's politics
were fundamentally 'green'. As our first truly ecological poet,
Wordsworth articulated a powerful and enduring vision of human
integration with nature which exercised a formative influence on
later conservation movements and is of immediate relevance to great
environmental issues today. Challenging the orthodoxies of new
historicist criticism, Jonathan Bate sets a new agenda for the
study of Romanticism in the 1990s.
