Abstract

Wordsworth is one of the representatives of the romantic poetry. He tried to innovate new ways of writing in his poems and he regarded the poetry as a cure for man's depression. So this paper mainly focuses on William Wordsworth's ecological ideas and analyzes the relationship between man and nature, man's respect for nature and the esthetic value of nature and even the significance of his ideas represented in his poetry. The purpose is to arouse people's keen love for nature, to develop their ecological consciousness to protect the natural environment.
