Abstract
"Environmental Literature" aims at understanding the earth. The
description of the natural entities is only a partial effort to understand the
environment because all other issues intersect with the complex issue of natural
world. The whole understanding of the earth depends on interconnectedness. The
language of the land and the verbal language too are thus interconnected. The
natural processes become the formal properties of the text and present not only
what they physically mean but also those things that they conceptually stand for.
Wordsworth presents this sprit of wholeness in his poetry by inter-connecting the
self with nature using the diction purely drawn from nature world and find nature
as the source of beauty, imagination, creativity and joy.
