A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Essay on Wordsworth and about thirty of Wordsworth sshorter poems having been chosen as subjects of examination by the I rish Intermediate Education Board, it has been thought advisable to print them together, and to append such annotation as might prove helpful to the student. But the little volume will, I hope, be used by others besides examination candidates; for Lowell s Essay, although it by no means says all that one would wish to be said about Wordsworth, and although its tone is perhaps rather too superior, and although at times the attempts at humour are not entirely satisfactory, is interesting and suggestive, and gives biographical details in an attractive form, and altogether forms an admirable introduction to the selected poems. The notes have been written independently of the introductory Essay, so it is more than possible that I may have expressed opinions not always coincident with those of Mr. Lowell. The poems have been arranged in chronological order, as given in the Globe edition, and for punctuation, use of capital letters, etc., that edition is responsible. As the Education Board did not state which sonnet to Haydon and which poem to the Cuckoo was intended, both sonnets and both poems are included; but I have only annotated one of each. H. B. C.
