In this passage we learn that Coleridge and Wordsworth were essentially the pioneers of Romanticism, even though their views and writing styles were a little bit different from one another. Romanticism is the style that depicts expression from a deep sense of thought, as with spirituality. It takes upon itself methods to explore true meanings of things as with finding beauty in nature (Wordsworth) and the stimulation of one's imagination (Coleridge). In Coleridge's writing, his sharp mind was lured with imagination linked with nature. Coleridge was not so surrounded with nature, as he might have otherwise desired.William Wordsworth had a different approach to life and poetry. Wordsworth wanted to produce language that the ordinary mind would be able to understand. He wanted his readers to have the ability to relate to what he was saying. Coleridge did not agree with what Wordsworth endorsed by way of being attuned to the rustic or common life.Wordsworth, however, grew up with nature as opposed to Coleridge, even though they were pretty good friends at one point.
