有学者从新历史主义出发,认为华兹华斯在骨子里一直是保守的,包括他早期的《抒情歌谣集》也是如此,因此他在该诗集的序中声称这部诗集是一个文学实验,并不能支撑他去世之后被认为是一位政治激进诗人的声誉。这一立场肇始于罗伯特·马约的爆炸性观点。他认为,华兹华斯的诗歌并无新意,尤其是与当时的杂志上发表的诗歌相比较而言,所以诗人的表面声言并不足信。本文对这一怀疑主义观点提出反对,通过论证华兹华斯在序中宣称诗集作品的实验性时的真诚态度,重新肯定了华兹华斯在诗歌和政治上的诚实品格。本文借用阿多诺有关实验的观点,即实验是对未知的测试、对文艺史上某一时期尚未得到认可的技术手段的凸显,认为诗人在该诗集的序中针对诗歌的实验性所流露出来焦虑无疑是一种真诚流露,尤其是当我们认识到一点的时候,即:诗人的这一宣示是面对图书读者而非期刊读者。
有學者從新歷史主義齣髮,認為華玆華斯在骨子裏一直是保守的,包括他早期的《抒情歌謠集》也是如此,因此他在該詩集的序中聲稱這部詩集是一箇文學實驗,併不能支撐他去世之後被認為是一位政治激進詩人的聲譽。這一立場肇始于囉伯特·馬約的爆炸性觀點。他認為,華玆華斯的詩歌併無新意,尤其是與噹時的雜誌上髮錶的詩歌相比較而言,所以詩人的錶麵聲言併不足信。本文對這一懷疑主義觀點提齣反對,通過論證華玆華斯在序中宣稱詩集作品的實驗性時的真誠態度,重新肯定瞭華玆華斯在詩歌和政治上的誠實品格。本文藉用阿多諾有關實驗的觀點,即實驗是對未知的測試、對文藝史上某一時期尚未得到認可的技術手段的凸顯,認為詩人在該詩集的序中針對詩歌的實驗性所流露齣來焦慮無疑是一種真誠流露,尤其是噹我們認識到一點的時候,即:詩人的這一宣示是麵對圖書讀者而非期刊讀者。

The aim of this essay is to reaffirm Wordsworth's literary and political integrity by proving the veracity of his claim that the poems in the Preface were experiments. It argues against the skepticism of the New Historicist position which holds that Wordsworth was always deeply conservative, even when considering his early work, Lyrical Ballads, and that, consequently, Wordsworth's claim that the Ballads is a literary experiment does nothing to guarantee his posthumous reputation as a poet with radical political ideas. This position on Wordsworth was compounded by Robert Mayo's groundbreaking argument that his poems are not new, especially if we compare them with the kind of poetry that was already being published in magazines, and thus the poet's claim can no longer be taken at face value. Theodor Adorno, however, views the meaning of experiment as a way of testing the unknown, a way of foregrounding unsanctioned technical procedures at a historical moment in literature as well as in music. Wordsworth's anxiety, shown in the Preface, about the experimental nature of these poems can be seen as genuine once we understand that he was addressing book readers, not magazine readers.
