Length57h 27m
About this audiobook
This illustrated edition reconstructs Samuel Taylor Coleridge through the interplay of lyric, criticism, reminiscence, and visual accompaniment. Rather than presenting Romantic poetry as an isolated achievement, it places celebrated lyrics alongside searching accounts of imagination, friendship, illness, conversation, and literary reputation. The volume's range—from visionary verse and reflective prose to biographical anecdote—illuminates the tensions between the mythic Romantic figure and the vulnerable, intellectually restless man. Its most compelling passages allow poetic intensity and lived experience to answer one another. The contributors bring distinct but complementary relations to Coleridge and his age. A major poet and theorist of British Romanticism appears here in dialogue with a formidable essayist and critic, a close observer of his later life, and a popular literary interpreter attentive to presentation and readership. Together, these voices connect the collection to Romantic debates about imagination, authorship, genius, and the moral responsibilities of art, while also tracing the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century shaping of Coleridge's public image. Their varied perspectives make biography itself a form of criticism. Recommended for students of Romantic literature, poetry readers, and admirers of literary biography, this volume offers an unusually rich single-volume encounter with Coleridge's world. Its illustrations and multiple genres reward close reading, inviting readers to compare lyric expression with recollection, judgment, and cultural memory.
