William Wordsworth attitude towards nature

William Wordsworth treatment of nature

William Wordsworth was the greatest poet of the Romantic Movement English Literature. He was a poet of both man and Nature. He believed that the company and communion with nature give a perennial source of joy to the heart. He has spiritualized nature and regarded her as a great moral teacher, as the best mother guardian and nurse of man, as an evocative influence. He conceived nature to be a living personality with a sound spirit pervading all glorious objects of nature.

He found spiritual intercourse, undaunted and moral strength and presence of the divine providence in the sights and sound of mature. The poet perceived an ardent but harmonious relationship among man, nature and God, because this conscious spirit dwells everywhere between earth and heaven. God in man spoke to God in nature. It necessary not to stress on any one element in his poetic cosmos.

For the naturalistic the three together lead to his faith in the motherhood of nature, mysticism and pantheism are not severed from his sympathy with fellow human beings. Nature speaks to him still, sad music of humanity. He observes natural objects and phenomena and instinctively he reaches spiritual revelation in the most beauteous forms. The torrents from the blue sky, the movements winds and clouds and the calm blue sky within and above the Ryder mount and sophisticated and bear on the voice of the eternal and mysterious but elevating,ennobling and penetrating.
