Description: The Presence of God in the Works of William Wordsworth by Eliza Borkowska Approaching Wordsworths entire poetic and prosaic oeuvre from perspectives which have not been considered in critical literature, this book offers a multiangled reflection on the technicalities of the poets religious discourse, including the methodology of The Prelude revision and Wordsworths technique of "bracketed religion". FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Approaching Wordsworth writings from perspectives which have not been considered in critical literature, this book offers a multiangled reflection on the technicalities of the poets religious discourse, including the methodology of The Prelude revision, or Wordsworths patent art of "pious postscripts." The book constitutes a self-contained whole and can be read independently. Simultaneously, it creates an unusual duet with The Absent God in The Works of William Wordsworth, whose six chapters follow this books eight chapters like a sestet which complements the octave—becoming, thus, a tribute to Wordsworth as one of the most prolific sonneteers in history. Both monographs build their theses on Wordsworths entire oeuvre and embrace the whole of his wide lifespan. Their completion in 2020 coincides with several round anniversaries: the 250th anniversary of Wordsworths birth, the 200th anniversary of The River Duddon, and the 170th anniversary of the publication of his autobiographical masterpiece, The Prelude. Author Biography Eliza Borkowska is Associate Professor of Literature at SWPS University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Warsaw and the author of But He Talked of the Temple of Mans Body: Blakes Revelation Un-Locked (2009).

It is an extraordinary, imaginative, and thoughtfully empathetic reading of the whole of the poets long lifetimes work. This is a book with which future Wordsworth scholars will have to reckon, and one that will offer much to surprise and challenge readers who think they know his poetry."
