Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

William Blake

Solution :

The correct option is William Blake.

The "Lake School of poetry" (whose members are often referred to as the Lake Poets) was a group of English poets who lived in the picturesque Lake District of England at the beginning of the 19th century. They were a key part of the Romantic movement in English literature.

The three primary figures of the Lake School are:
William Wordsworth, who settled in Grasmere in the Lake District.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, a close friend and collaborator of Wordsworth.
Robert Southey, who also lived in the region and became the Poet Laureate.

In contrast, William Blake, while also a major Romantic poet and artist, lived and worked mostly in London and was not associated with the geographical region or the literary circle of the Lake School.
