Unity Sublime: The Excursion's Social Self
Alderman argues that William Wordsworth's poem entitled The Excursion still remains crucially concerned with mapping a model of the self, but begins in the awareness that his earlier attempt inadequately delineated a social function for the poetic vocation that grounded its identity. Consequently, Alderman first analyzes one of Wordsworth's archetypal spots of time, before going on to examine the final book of The Excursion.
