Book Description
"The Matter of Europe is a series of seven sketches, one cosmological, one human evolutionary, and five cultural. They move from deep time to the present day, linking the physical to the biological, the human to the natural, and culture to culture. They evoke a universe and traditions which are infinitely varied and complex." "An 'Index of Selected Names' explains the spirit behind The Matter of Europe in notes on some of the contributors. The list is necessarily brief. It, too, is a bridge into the imagination."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
The long-established association of Romanticism with youth has resulted in the early poems of the Lake Poets being considered the most significant. Tim Fulford challenges the tendency to overlook the later poetry of no longer youthful poets, which has had the result of neglecting the Wordsworth, Coleridge and Southey of the 1820s and leaving unexamined the three poets' rise to popularity in the 1830s and 1840s. He offers a fresh perspective on the Lake Poets as professional writers shaping long careers through new work, as well as the republication of their early successes. The theme of lateness, incorporating revision, recollection, age and loss, is examined within contexts including gender, visual art, and the commercial book market. Fulford investigates the Lake Poets' later poems for their impact now, while also exploring their historical effects in their own time and counting the costs of their omission from Romanticism.

Book Description
There is a long-held view that Wordsworth's inspiration dried up before the age of forty. This book opposes that view by examining the substantial body of poetry written after his fiftieth year. The argument is that, in order to appreciate this work, much of which was inspired by itineraries in Britain and in Europe, we have to read the poems as they were first published. By adopting the perspective of the contemporary reader, Wordsworth's grand design can be appreciated.
