Wordsworth’s The Prelude is the greatest autobiography in verse in English and it is considered as Wordsworth’s greatest poem. The poem takes the form of an epic of which Wordsworth himself is the hero. The Prelude is described in its subtitle as the “growth of poet’s mind”. The growth of the mind is a theme exactly fitted to make Wordsworth’s genius work with intense and characteristic life. He stresses that the mind’s most piercing perception is always grounded in sensory particulars and the more spiritual the one, the more vivid the other. Here we find Wordsworth is playing the role of both the philosopher and psychologist agreeing, supporting it with evidence abstracted from the whole poem. Wordsworth’s aim is to realise the completeness of a deeply felt event of his own life making the poem reflect the psychology of a human being resulting into a psychological epic.
