Peele Castle and Other Poems
By William Wordsworth
Narrated by Evan Blackmore
Introduction by Evan Blackmore
This project is a recording of 43 poems on themes of hardship and bereavement, which are commonly included in Wordsworth anthologies (Matthew Arnold, Palgrave, etc.)
The breadth and depth of Wordsworth's feelings went far beyond his own personal experience. When he looked back at other times—at the troubles of the Reformation or the religious persecutions under Charles II—he thought of the many different people who were affected and felt for them all. And when he traveled to other places—for instance, when he traveled through Scotland and wrote the poems collected in Yarrow Revisited—his mind lingered in the dwellings and the ruins, and felt for the people who had lived there too.
