关于此电子书

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 'Poetry' exemplifies the Romantic ideal through its sublime exploration of emotion, nature, and the human condition. In this collection, Coleridge merges lyrical beauty with philosophical depth, employing innovative forms and striking imagery to evoke the complexities of existence. His use of meter and rhyme is not merely ornamental but integral to the rhythmic heartbeat of each poem, reflecting the interplay of imagination and reality that defines the Romantic movement's ethos. Coleridge, a central figure of the Romantic era, drew inspiration from his own tumultuous life experiences, including struggles with addiction and mental health. His philosophical engagement with German idealism and his friendships with contemporaries such as William Wordsworth profoundly influenced his poetic vision, leading him to seek a deeper connection between art and nature. These underlying themes resonate throughout 'Poetry,' establishing Coleridge not only as a poet but as a thinker who grapples with the very essence of creativity and life. Highly recommended for readers who appreciate lyrical poetry enriched with existential contemplation, Coleridge's 'Poetry' is an essential addition to the canon of English literature. It invites readers to immerse themselves in its transcendent language and to reflect on the profound ideas that continue to resonate in contemporary discourse.

作者简介

Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) remains one of the most significant figures in British literature, a poet, literary critic, philosopher, and a founder of the Romantic Movement in England. Coleridge's oeuvre spans a wide array of themes and forms, combining meditative lyrics with revolutionary political ideas and theories of the imagination. His most notable work, 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' (1798), is a seminal piece that showcases his capacity for deep symbolism, innovative use of language, and exploration of the supernatural. Along with poems like 'Kubla Khan' (1816) and 'Christabel' (1816), these works underscore Coleridge's mastery of evocative and lyrical prose. Thoughtfully thematic in his work, Coleridge delved into topics of nature, the sublime, and the metaphysical, often through a lens of personal introspection and mythic allegory. Additionally, his series of conversational poems, including 'The Eolian Harp' (1795) and 'Frost at Midnight' (1798), reflect his nuanced reflections on the human relationship with nature and the divine. His collaboration with William Wordsworth on 'Lyrical Ballads' (1798), arguably one of the most influential poetry collections of the time, signaled the dawn of Romanticism in English literature. Coleridge's critical works, particularly 'Biographia Literaria' (1817), further reveal his profound impact as a thinker and a critic, offering insight into the craft of writing and the workings of the poetic imagination. His complex weaving of thought and emotion in poetry secures his legacy as a towering figure of literary romanticism.
