Write
a brief essay on Wordsworth’s pantheistic creed with close textual references to
‘Tintern Abbey’.
Everything
is God, and God is everything, there is no other God. The universe, Nature and
God are thus interchangeable things.
This belief states that God is present in all natural things. On a
broader sense it claims that God and the material world are one and the same
things that God is present in everything. Everything around us including, tree,
rocks, and water etc. are identical with divinity. Pantheists don’t believe in
distinct personal or anthropomorphic God. It is somewhat related to the concept
of animism which suggests that there is consciousness in nature and natural
objects. Both of these ideas relate to the pagan views of religion, in which
nature is adored as sacred and multiple gods are seen as representing the
cosmos and the earth.
In Wordsworth
poetry nature is frequent topic and the sacred nature of landscape is a central
theme. Romantic poets like Keats, Shelley, Coleridge, with Wordsworth as
literary icon in romantic poetry, describe nature characterized what we call pantheism,
which is the belief that everything composes as immanent god, or nature is
identical with divinity. ................TO GET COMPLETE STUDY MATERIAL JOIN NSOU ENGLISH COACHING
