I think that one of the critical differences between both
writers' theories was that Wordsworth was much more pronounced in articulating
Romanticism. Wordsworth and Coleridge were quite conscious of their place in
articulating a new movement. For Blake, this was understood, in terms of him
representing a different intellectual current. Yet, without the solidarity of other
poets, such as what Wordsworth enjoyed from Coleridge, Blake was less pronounced about
ushering in a new intellectual current. For example, Wordsworth and Coleridge write
about what Romanticism is to entail, define it against Neoclassical thought, and revel
in being the leaders of a new movement. Blake is associated with this, but in the
writings of Blake, one does not get the same level of driven intensity about what
Romanticism is as one does in Wordsworth's work. This might help to account while Blake
was criticized in his lifetime, while Wordsworth revered for his contributions, even
though both were part of the same movement and shared the same
thinking.

I need a comparison between Blake's critical theory and that of William Wordsworth's theor.
