Descrição: Bates examines poet William Wordsworth's The River Duddon volume's golden ratio wheel and spiraling orbicular sonnets. In his "Topographical" guide to the Lake District at the end of The River Duddon volume- Wordsworth presents himself as a uniquely qualified picturesque tour guide and literary cartographer. Most famously, he introduces a panoramic, bird's-eye view that maps the Lake District's circumference through a wheel simile. He invites readers to imagine the impossible-floating with him on a cloud that provides a clear-sighted and comprehensive prospect view of "the main outlines of the Country."
