Walker, Eric. C. “Dorothy Wordsworth, William Wordsworth, and the Kirkstone Pass.” Wordsworth Circle 19.3 (June 1988): 116–21.
“I offer these various Kirkstone texts as an example of a generally overlooked connection between the two writers, and I want to suggest that it is still useful to study William’s texts that are subsequent to and dependent upon Dorothy’s texts, not to assemble wrongheaded evidence of the better writer Dorothy Wordsworth could not be, but simply to begin to assemble in a systematic way the evidence of how Dorothy Wordsworth’s prose has been read” (p. 116).
