ABOUT THE AUTHOR

William Wordsworth

O poeta romântico William Wordsworth foi um dos impulsionadores da génese do movimento romântico inglês. Nasceu em Cumberland, Inglaterra, em 1770. Estreou-se na literatura em 1787, quando publicou um poema no The European Magazine. No mesmo ano, começou a estudar em Cambridge, onde se entusiasmou com os ideais da Revolução Francesa, e formou-se em Artes em 1791. Em 1798 publicou, juntamente com Samuel Taylor Coleridge, a antologia poética Lyrical Ballads, cujo prefácio é muitas vezes considerado o manifesto do romantismo inglês. Nele, defende-se o uso da linguagem coloquial, do homem comum, como melhor modo de expressar a universalidade das emoções humanas, e a valorização da simplicidade quotidiana. Em 1798 Wordsworth começou a escrever um longo poema autobiográfico, Poem to Coleridge, publicado alguns meses depois da sua morte com o título The Prelude. O poeta morreu com oitenta anos em 1850.
