Wordsworth, Whitman, and Us: Finding Personal Relationships.
Resch, Kenneth E.
English Journal, v77 n4 p19-22 Apr 1988
Describes a teacher's personal memories which, when shared with students, helped make the poetry of Wordsworth and Whitman more meaningful. Suggests that for true comprehension of poetry to occur--Romantic or otherwise--teachers must lead students and model from within their own personal connections. (NH)
