We can't talk about British Romanticism without talking about William Wordsworth, the father of the whole she-bang. In fact, the beginning of British Romanticism as a literary movement is usually traced back to Wordsworth's publication of the collection of poems Lyrical Ballads in 1798, which he co-authored with his friend Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
Why is Wordsworth so important? For one thing, he revolutionized the writing of poetry. Wordsworth was one of the first poets to try to make poetry accessible to the common man, to write in a language that was part of "everyday" speech. Not to mention that a lot of the big Romantic themes—like nature and emotion—first find expression in Wordsworth's poetry.
