摘要：In this research paper I shall argue that the pattern of growth in A Passage toIndia is Wordsworthian. Wordsworth’s theory of personal growth is explainedby his concept of ‘spots of time’. The most English kind of literary identification– with Wordsworth and Romanticism – enables Forster to reach out to attemptto comprehend the non-English and the non-Western. In A Passage to India,Mrs Moore endorses the Wordsworthian view of Nature by making Grasmerea standard of essential English identity. Forster blends the Wordsworthiannotion of ‘spots of time’ with the spiritual side of Hinduism. This side ofHinduism Forster sees embodied in the moment of the birth of Krishna.
