Description
The purpose is to resolve long-standing questions regarding Wordsworth’s claim to philosophic consideration. It turns to the modern theoretical premises of empirical psychologist Jean Piaget for clues to a more cogent interpretation. The remarkable parallels between Wordsworth’s insights and Piaget’s empirical observations give fresh indication of the poet’s genius. Piagetian relativism provides a theoretical framework for appreciating elements in his works which have hitherto seemed irreconcilable philosophically: it reveals the presence of system in the poet’s thought.
