Answer 2

n 1798, William Wordsworth, poet to Lines Written in Early Spring, was to publish a volume of poetry known as ‘Lyrical Ballads’ with his then-friend Samuel Taylor Coleridge. In 1802, they published this volume again, this time with a preface written by William Wordsworth himself, wherein he attempted to explain the reasoning for writing his poetry. He wrote, ‘what is a Poet? He is a man speaking to men’, a movement away from idealized notion of the poet having some higher aim in life and some God-ordained talent to write to educate others.

As the poet sits there and muses on nature, its beauty, and its seamless existence, his thoughts turn briefly to the misery of man, and to the miseries that they wrought on each other. At the time of writing, the French Revolution was raging through France, a cultural shock which was to provide the British literary society with enough fodder to last them for years – and William Wordsworth was no exception to the rule. Stunned by the cruelty and the callousness of French society, he and other Romantics wrote primarily to try and take back the world from the brink that it had been pushed to during the so-called age of enlightenment.
