Frost and Wordsworth: Romantic Poetry in the Light of Common Day

May 1, 2013

The poetry of Robert Frost and William Wordsworth depends heavily on the natural world and the "language really used by men." Vermont Poet Laureate Sydney Lea explores the poets' similarities, differences, and influences on other poets.

Presented at the Brooks Memorial Library in Brattleboro, Vermont as part of Vermont Humanities Council "First Wednesdays" lecture series.
