Presentation lyrical ballad
Wordsworth outlines three principles in the preface to the Lyrical Ballads: 1) the poetry concerns nature and country life, 2) it emphasizes poetry as an art form to enlighten readers on human emotion, and 3) clean, simple lines best capture the imagination rather than overly complicated styles. He chose rustic subjects and language to find a "plainer and more emphatic" way to communicate passions. Poetry combines feeling and thought as a spontaneous overflow of powerful emotions and ideas. The poet's duty is to produce pleasure and enlarge human capability. Wordsworth defends his choice of common subjects and language to better understand essential human passions.

He met Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1795 and the two collaborated on the groundbreaking collection of poems Lyrical Ballads in 1798, which featured common language and focused on the everyday lives of ordinary people.

William Wordsworth and Robert Frost
William Wordsworth and Robert Frost are both considered nature poets.

Biography literaria chapter 17
Coleridge provides a summary and critique of Wordsworth's views on poetic diction as expressed in the preface to Lyrical Ballads. He objects that not all of Wordsworth's characters are truly from low and rustic life, and their language cannot be attributed solely to their environment. Additionally, the language of rustics is too limited to form the basis of poetic language, as it lacks ideas, thoughts, and vocabulary derived from reflection. While Wordsworth aimed to use natural language, Coleridge argues the best parts of language come from thinking on noble concepts, not the direct expressions of rustics. Their views thus differ on the proper sources and qualities of language suitable for poetic works.

It was developed by James Asher and involves instructors giving commands in the target language through body movements, which students then mimic physically.

While simple to implement, TPR should be combined with other approaches as it has limitations.
