Recollections Of The Lakes And The Lake Poets: Coleridge, Wordsworth, And Southey (1863) is a book written by Thomas De Quincey. The book is a memoir of the author’s time spent in the Lake District of England, where he became acquainted with the three most prominent poets of the area: Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth, and Robert Southey. The book offers a detailed account of the author’s interactions with the poets, as well as his observations of their lives and work. De Quincey provides insight into the poets’ personalities, their writing processes, and the literary movements of their time. He also shares anecdotes and personal experiences that provide a glimpse into the daily life of the poets and the Lake District community. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the author’s experiences with the poets. The first chapter provides an overview of the Lake District and its significance as a literary hub. The subsequent chapters delve into the lives and works of Coleridge, Wordsworth, and Southey, respectively. Overall, Recollections Of The Lakes And The Lake Poets: Coleridge, Wordsworth, And Southey (1863) is a fascinating and informative account of the lives and works of three of the most influential poets of the Romantic era, as seen through the eyes of a contemporary observer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
