| For a long time the received view of the collaborative relationship
between Wordsworth and Coleridge has been that Wordsworth was
the efficient producer of more finished poetic statements (most
notably his long, autobiographical poem The Prelude) and Coleridge,
however extraordinary he was as a thinker and a talker, left
behind more intolerably diffuse and fragmented works. |
| Wordsworth and Coleridge: Views from the Meticulous to the
Sublime examines the issue from a number of different critical
vantage points, reassessing the poets' inextricable achievements,
and rediscovering their legacy. |
