William Wordsworth   (1770 - 1850) “In the Shadow of Grief, Under the Light of Nature: Wordsworth’s Beginnings” Introduction : William Wordsworth, born in 1770 in the scenic Lake District of England , was a pioneering figure of the Romantic movement in poetry. Deeply inspired by nature, he believed that the natural world held profound spiritual and emotional truths. His early life, marked by personal loss and solitude, shaped his introspective and heartfelt verse.

The Victorian Age  1830 - 90 Class Assignment: THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND  1. An Era of Peace The Victorian Age (1837–1901), during Queen Victoria’s reign, is often called an era of peace and stability compared to earlier centuries. There were no major internal wars in England, unlike the Civil War of the 17th century or the Napoleonic Wars of the early 19th century. Although Britain was involved in foreign conflicts (like the Crimean War and colonial wars), the home front remained largely peaceful. The political situation was more stable because of the gradual reforms: The Reform Acts extended voting rights. Growth of parliamentary democracy reduced revolutionary pressures that many other European nations faced. This peace created a sense of security and progress, giving Victorians confidence in their nation’s destiny. 2.
