Nutting (W. Wordsworth)
Commentaire de document - Anglais - 5 pages - Format Microsoft Word
Wordsworth takes the emotional importance of a childhood memory of a seemingly trivial incident to engage in a dramatic reconstruction of the scene. It has a strangely epic ‘feel’ in comparison with the other poems, as if the experience was a pressing one for him to record. He uses the adult perspective of the person to introduce elements of violence and sexuality which naturally lead us to question whether this is simply an individual memory or a reflection on wider themes of the relationship between humanity and nature and the inherent ‘goodness’ of man. As these two themes were central to Romantic poetry, the poem becomes a sort of ‘farewell’ to the more naive side of the romantic movement (its glorification of nature and romantic faith in the perfecty of human beings).
