    The answer is William Wordsworth (1770-1850). It was in 1790, during his university studies at St. John's College in Cambridge, that this renowned British poet went on a walking tour of Europe and, after coming in contact with the French Revolution, he became an ardent supporter of it and of democracy - his political views would later on become less radical, but he never completely abandoned them. His prolific work includes, for the most part, poems, which show his sympathy for ordinary people and his concern with the relationship between men and nature. His most famous work is The Prelude, which was published after his death. He also composed prose, such as a tourist guide of his beloved Lake District (A Guide through the District of the Lakes, published in 1820), which attracted a very significant amount of tourists to the area.

    Wordsworth spent the final years of his life at Rydal Mount in England, where he worked as Distributor of Stamps.
