Coleridge : Poems (Everyman's Library (Paper)) Book

"Kubla Khan." "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." "The Eolian Harp." Samuel Taylor Coleridge was a genius who wrote some of the greatest poems in the history of the English language. Together with his friend William Wordsworth, he provided the best articulation of Romanticism, as well as some of the most powerful examples of that aesthetic. This collection, from the excellent Everyman's Library Pocket Poets series, includes not only Coleridge's poetry, but also some selections from his insightful essays and letters about poetry. But of course, it's the poems that count the most, as evidenced by this excerpt from one of Coleridge's less legendary works, his beautiful tribute "To William Wordsworth," which was written after hearing his friend give an especially moving reading. These sentiments could easily apply to the author himself: "The tumult rose and ceased: for Peace is nigh / Where Wisdom's voice has found a listening heart." Read More

    This selection contains all the poems from Coleridge's own collected edition of 1828, supplemented by many that appeared posthumously; it includes "Christabel," "From Stowey to Keswick," and "Dejection." All poems are based on close examination of the earliest editions, and include Coleridge's own illuminating emendments to his poetry. The text of "Kubla Khan" is taken from the Crew manuscript, and "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is printed as originally published in 1798.
