The Oxford Handbook of William Wordsworth deploys its forty-eight
original essays, by an international team of scholar-critics, to
present a stimulating account of Wordsworth's life and achievement
and to map new directions in criticism. Nineteen essays explore the
highlights of a long career systematically, giving special
prominence to the lyric Wordsworth of Lyrical Ballads and the Poems
in Two Volumes and to the blank verse poet of 'The Recluse'. Most
of the other essays return to the poetry while exploring other
dimensions of the life and work of the major Romantic poet. The
result is a dialogic exploration of many major texts and problems
in Wordsworth scholarship. This uniquely comprehensive handbook is
structured so as to present, in turn, Wordsworth's life, career,
and networks; aspects of the major lyrical and narrative poetry;
components of 'The Recluse'; his poetical inheritance and his
transformation of poetics; the variety of intellectual influences
upon his work, from classical republican thought to modern science;
his shaping of modern culture in such fields as gender, landscape,
psychology, ethics, politics, religion and ecology; and his 19th-
and 20th-century reception-most importantly by poets, but also in
modern criticism and scholarship.
