William Wordsworth bol kľúčový anglický romantický básnik, ktorý so Samuelom Taylorom Coleridgeom pomohol naštartovať romantickú éru v anglickej literatúre. Jeho majstrovské dielo je autobiografická báseň z raných rokov života, ktorú básnik mnohokrát revidoval a rozširoval. Wordsworthov štýl sa vyznačoval hlbokým záujmom o prírodu a jej vplyv na ľudskú dušu, pričom jeho poézia často skúmala témy pamäti, mladosti a duchovného rastu.
