The Mind of a Poet: A Study of Wordsworth's Thought with Particular Reference to the Prelude Volume 1 - Paperback
by Raymond Dexter Havens (Author)
Originally published in 1941. This book stresses the transcendental, rather than purely aesthetic, qualities of William Wordsworth's work. It argues that the unusual aspects of Wordsworth's mind are not isolated and did not seem to him fanciful or merely personal; they were, for him, so many paths, difficult to find and harder to follow, yet leading to the great central truth that is the goal of all humankind's loftier strivings.
Raymond Dexter Havens was a professor of English at the University of Rochester and the Caroline Donovan Professor of English at Johns Hopkins University. Havens is also the author of The Influence of Milton on English Poetry.
