      Wordsworth's visionary intensity and simplicity of style made him one of the most popular Romantic poets. Wordsworth's major theme was the influence of nature on man, and this was explored and expounded to great acclaim through the Lyrical Ballads . These remain a landmark in the history of English romanticism for their innovative, elementary style and their treatment of familiar objects and ordinary people. As a young man Wordsworth was inspired by revolutionary ideals and heartfelt passions which influenced his poetry. With great lucidity he wrote a range of celebrated sonnets, evocative odes, and majestic blank verse. He was a great innovator and his poetical works have permanently enlarged the range of English poetry, both in subject matter and in execution. This book contains every piece of verse known to have been published by the poet himself, including the 1850 text of The Prelude .

      "Touchante peinture domestique" pour Sainte-Beuve, Eugénie Grandet a longtemps eu la réputation d'un roman moral. Rien ne manque en effet à la palette des vertus qui s'y déploie, de la pudeur des premiers émois amoureux au modeste train de vie qui régit la maisonnée des Grandet. Pourtant, la véracité documentaire de cette chronique provinciale en fait un des chefs-d'oeuvre incontestés du réalisme. Sans rien négliger de la peinture de son siècle et des ravages de l'argent dans les relations humaines, Balzac signe le portrait poignant d'une jeune ingénue sacrifiée sur l'autel de la cupidité des hommes.
