<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors offer insights into their own work as well as providing an accessible and passionate introduction to the most important poets in our literature.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>William Wordsworth</b> (1770-1850) was born in Cockermouth, Cumberland. In 1798 he published the <i>Lyrical Ballads</i> with Coleridge, settling shortly after in Dove Cottage, Grasmere with his sister, Dorothy. He died at Rydal Mount in 1850, shortly before the posthumous publication of that landmark of English Romanticism, <i>The Prelude.</i> <p/><b>Seamus Heaney</b> was born in County Derry in Northern Ireland. <i>Death of a Naturalist</i>, his first collection of poems, appeared in 1966, and was followed by poetry, criticism and translations which established him as the leading poet of his generation. In 1995 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, and twice won the Whitbread Book of the Year, for <i>The Spirit Level<i> (1996) and <i>Beowulf<i> (1999). <i>Stepping Stones<i>, a book of interviews conducted by Dennis O'Driscoll, appeared in 2008; <i>Human Chain<i>, his last volume of poems, was awarded the 2010 Forward Prize for Best Collection. He died in 2013.<br>
