초록
The Prelude by William Wordsworth is composed of many images from nature as objects of speculation. And it stimulates the contemplative process through imagination for the conscious mind. As the chief devices for presenting Wordsworth’s poetic identity, the absence of imagination derived from the images impoverishes humanity and drives us to lives isolated from the condition in which we can get to the creativity of recognition. To amend this piteous existence, Wordsworth develops a way of being conscious of material images as not only the devices of mental speculation, but the pathway to the imagination. This study focuses on how Wordsworth develops the creativity of imagination into the state of ‘the conversion of existence’ through the mental speculation with images, the objects of sensibility. Wordsworth traces the inner world equivalent to the substance of human beings through imagination, by which we can realize the real substance from the symbolic images of nature. And in The Prelude, the concept of space can be found analogous to Gaston Bachelard’s idea regarding the operation of thinking to deepen our inner world, its under-presence. As the spatial phenomenology in The Prelude shows, the imagination lies in the way of his laying images in the concept of space. The spatial phenomenology shows conscious speculation as the route to reach the universal essence of the thinking process. Thus Wordsworth seeks the transcendental world through a journey from present to past, the device for salvation and realization of self-identity, in the concept of space through which leads not only us, but himself to the state of process in “the conversion of existence”. Therefore, to identify the spatial phenomenology as compared with the world of Gaston Bachelard in this study is to reveal the Wordsworth’s world of self-recognition and the process of the realization of existence. And through the spatial phenomenology, we can also observe that Wordsworth attains the completion in existence and reaches the transcendental state owing to the coexistence with imagination. From the comparing Wordsworth with Bachelard we can make much more progress to realize Wordsworth’s verifiable identity revealed in his poetic existence.
Abstract
The Prelude by William Wordsworth is composed of many images from nature as objects of speculation. And it stimulates the contemplative process through imagination for the conscious mind. As the chief devices for presenting Wordsworth’s poetic identity, the absence of imagination derived from the images impoverishes humanity and drives us to lives isolated from the condition in which we can get to the creativity of recognition. To amend this piteous existence, Wordsworth develops a way of being conscious of material images as not only the devices of mental speculation, but the pathway to the imagination. This study focuses on how Wordsworth develops the creativity of imagination into the state of ‘the conversion of existence’ through the mental speculation with images, the objects of sensibility. Wordsworth traces the inner world equivalent to the substance of human beings through imagination, by which we can realize the real substance from the symbolic images of nature. And in The Prelude, the concept of space can be found analogous to Gaston Bachelard’s idea regarding the operation of thinking to deepen our inner world, its under-presence. As the spatial phenomenology in The Prelude shows, the imagination lies in the way of his laying images in the concept of space. The spatial phenomenology shows conscious speculation as the route to reach the universal essence of the thinking process. Thus Wordsworth seeks the transcendental world through a journey from present to past, the device for salvation and realization of self-identity, in the concept of space through which leads not only us, but himself to the state of process in “the conversion of existence”. Therefore, to identify the spatial phenomenology as compared with the world of Gaston Bachelard in this study is to reveal the Wordsworth’s world of self-recognition and the process of the realization of existence. And through the spatial phenomenology, we can also observe that Wordsworth attains the completion in existence and reaches the transcendental state owing to the coexistence with imagination. From the comparing Wordsworth with Bachelard we can make much more progress to realize Wordsworth’s verifiable identity revealed in his poetic existence.
