Stirred simultaneously by walks in the English countryside and by his relationships with his sister Dorothy and English poet-critic Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth wrote most of his major works during the “great decade” of 1797–1808, including “Tintern Abbey,” “The Solitary Reaper,” “Resolution and Independence,” “Ode: Intimations of Immortality,” and The Prelude.
