About William Wordsworth

William Wordsworth was an English Romantic poet. He lived in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and with Samuel Taylor Coleridge he helped launch the Romantic Age in English literature through their joint publication, Lyrical Ballads, in 1798. His work is closely associated with the rise of Romantic poetry in England, especially through the ideas and tone that shaped that movement. He is remembered for helping redefine English poetry at a turning point in literary history.
