Wordsworth Bewertungen

A major achievement. A marvellous combination of profound scholarship and equally profound speculative insight. Professor Stephen Gill, Oxford University


Wordsworth: An Inner Life shows that it is still possible to say new things about a life and a literary oeuvre which might seem, in outline, all too familiar. Times Literary Supplement


This is traditional scholarship at its best, attentive to detail and immersed in a welter of poetic sources, which will no doubt be studied and absorbed by bright graduate students and Wordsworth experts. Times Higher Education Supplement

In his reconstruction of Wordsworth's inner life, Wu offers a compelling blend of biography and literary criticism. Religious Studies Review
