Deep ecological sentiment and idealisation of nature in Wil

Deep ecological sentiment and idealisation of nature in William Wordsworth’s “Tintern Abbey”

EDIT: I got paranoid about having this online as I'm unsure of some of the stuff regarding the Priaha tribe mentioned in it as it's been a few years since I read the relevant material, I can send you a copy by email ( rd5683@hotmail.com ) or facebook.

Ps. It's not great

I'd be interested to hear your English teacher's response. They're not a species reknowned for their sympathy to utilitariany thoughts :P

Haha, I think he thought it was good, he wrote something like "thought provoking, but misunderstands Wordsworth".

He's pretty great, though sometimes seems to have strange positions on things, then again he's an english teacher and not an ethicist.
