William Wordsworth is considered as one of the most representative Romantic Poets of the first generation. Together with S.T. Coleridge he wrote the Lyrical Ballads, in which it is possible to find some of his main themes, together with a Preface where Wordswoth expresses his point of view about the concept of Poet Prophet, of Language and of topics that should be treated by poetry.

This video also gives a special insight into some interpretations of Wordsworth's poems (f.i. I wandered lonely as a Cloud or The Daffodils) concerning the use of colours and the concept of Nature as an active force, an organic living whole that can be considered as a source of inspiration and joy for the artist.

The different "levels" of the Universe belong together in a pantheistic world of spirituality, in which the humblest elements are meant to convey the highest truths.
