520 _a"Selections from Wordsworth and Tennyson" compiled by Pelham Edgar is a poetry anthology, edited to serve educational purposes in the early 20th century. Likely written in the early 19th century, this collection features a range of works from two of England's most beloved poets, William Wordsworth and Alfred Lord Tennyson, exploring themes of nature, love, and the human experience within their verses. The selection serves as a reflection of the Romantic ideals prevalent during that era, celebrating the beauty of the natural world and the emotional depth of human connections. The opening portion of this anthology begins with a preface that outlines its purpose as a required text for Junior Matriculation in Ontario. It includes an extensive list of poems by both Wordsworth and Tennyson, starting with Wordsworth's "Michael," a pastoral tale that introduces the character of a shepherd, Michael, and his simple yet profound life in the valley. This poem sketches Michael's bond with nature and his family, particularly highlighting his deep love for his only son, Luke. As the plot unfolds, it touches upon themes of familial duty, the challenges of life, and the inevitable passage of time, setting a poignant tone that resonates throughout the anthology. The selections promise readers a rich exploration of profound emotional landscapes through the works of both poets. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
