Judith W. Page – Nineteenth-Century Studies Association

In public poetry and private letters, Wordsworth wrote about all sorts of loves and he had a deep conviction that poetry could help us live. Exploring his writing, alongside a wide range of poetry written across five centuries, this workshop will offer a space to reflect on what, and who, we love, and on how that is expressed in our words and our lives. All are welcome at this friendly and relaxed workshop, which will be facilitated by Lucy Crispin.

Copies of all texts discussed will be provided.

Pity the writer who is supposed to come up with a fresh description of its scenery; suffice it to say that the Lake District has all the sublimity that Wordsworth and Coleridge claimed for it in their poems.
