Synopsis

This collection of Coleridge's finest poetry reveals the diversity and versatility that are characteristic of his work, from early politically-inspired sonnets to an epitaph he composed for himself in the penultimate year of his life. At the centre of the collection are those mature poems which Coleridge wrote while enjoying the intense friendship of William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy. These include "Fears in Solitude", "The Lime Tree Bower My Prison" and "Frost at Midnight". "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is presented in full, along with the later, better-known version. The collection as a whole clearly shows Coleridge to be one of the most significant figures in the development of English Romantic poetry.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
