William Wordsworth's Golden Age Theories During the Industrial Revolution (Hardcover)


Wordsworth's romantic critique of industrial life and society was backwards looking. His "Golden Age Ideal" of pastoral life and rural relationships falls within the scope of the English populism found among the middle ranks of small independent producers. His rural education and upbringing in the remote North of England explain his move away from radical and whig reform, in the years 1789 to 1832 as well as his relative demise as a poet.
