520 | _aThe anti-scientific bias of the first generation of Romantic poets is well-known, and Wordsworth is no exception. His famous “we murder to dissect” advocates a direct apprehension of Nature that runs against scientific methods. His portrait of an infant prodigy in the fourth book of The Prelude even reads as a satire of the scientific approach of nature, the proper attitude being described, a few dozen lines further, through the character of the Winander Boy. Yet this rejection should be qualified inasmuch as the communion with Nature so often depicted is not exclusive of a questioning of her. On looking closer, one might even think that the poet is something of the scientist’s counterpart, he who “[carries] sensation into the midst of the object of the Science itself.” | ||
