William Wordsworth's "The Thorn"

The members of William Wordsworth's blog (I provided the link below) have a pretty interesting and informative blog. The B7 girls, Megan Free, Alyssa Seever, and Tawny Crockatt talk about Wordsworth's use of nature, his poems and his life. When I first looked at their blog I thought it was kind of plain, and it they could use a more interesting layout. However, they did have a lot of entries, compared to some of the other blog sites, which made it better to read their blog. Besides the layout the blog entries were all interesting. I found Alyssa's post about Wordsworth's use of nature the most interesting because it talks about how he included nature in his poems. Also, she explained how the romantics viewed nature, which is very important in the Romanticism topic. The art on these girls' blog struck me the most because it gives people something else to look at besides words. This blog is important because they gave readers information about William Wordsworth that we probably didn't know, and they stayed on their topic, which can teach the reader many things. For those folks who do not know anything about Romanticism, this is a good blog to look at because they talk about who he is and some of his poems that he has wrote. Also, the entries that they have are very informative and the reader could learn a lot about Romanticism just by reading their blog. Not only does their blog teach the person about William Wordsworth, they talk about Romanticism in general and how Romantic poets use nature in their poetry. I also liked how they included a poem other than the ones we went over in class. That gave their blog some variety, and something new to read. Instead of reading the entries about the two poems we read in class, it was nice to have one about "The Prelude". This poem was in Wordsworth's first book, where he talks about finding his vital soul, and experiences relief when coming back to nature. Overall this was an interesting blog and I liked it a lot. The B7 group did a good job.
