Book excerpt: Samuel Coleridge (1772-1834) was probably the first to person to read William Wordsworth (1770-1850) philosophically, says Joplin (English, Utah Valley State College). And so it is with the connection between former's thought and latter's poetry that he begins his endeavor to carry the philosophical study of Worsdworth in a new direction. He focuses on Coleridge's dynamic philosophy as a context within which to shed more light on certain aspects of Wordsworth's poetry that he feels remain to be explained, specifically the intimate reciprocity between mind and nature that marks his work between 1798 and 1805.
