Twentieth Century Wordsworth

In this study of Wordsworth's writings, M. G. Barnes shows how the poet was influenced by philosophical scientists of his day and demonstrates his use of scientific terms on abstract ideas. She also shows that Wordsworth had a more than average knowledge of flora and fauna, not only of this country but also overseas. M. G. Barnes' thesis is a useful addition to the canon of Wordsworth studies and her Appendix, which lists 219 different plants and animals mentioned in his poetry, is a particularly singular piece of research.
