Much has been written on William Wordsworth's Lucy poems and on Matthew Arnold's Marguerite poems; yet, surprisingly, no comparative or contrastive study has ever been done on these two famous cycles of poems, despite their overt external similarities and the close relationship between Wordsworth and Arnold. Only U. C. Knoepflmacher mentions briefly that 'the conception of the 'Marguerite' poems owes much to Wordsworth's use of his 'Lucy'' (51); and yet he does not go on to make any elaboration or further connection. Thus far there has been no evidence to prove Knoepflmacher's statement, and it is impossible for us to know whether Arnold had the Lucy poems in mind when he composed his Marguerite poems. |
