- A major new edition of one of Romanticism's key works
- Sensitive editing, notation, and commentary highlight important topics and themes
Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the Romantic Age's most enigmatic figures, a genius of astonishing diversity; author of some of the most famous poems in the English language, and co-author, with Wordsworth, of Lyrical Ballads; one of England's greatest critics and theorists of literature and imagination; as well as autobiographer, nature-writer, philosopher, theologian, psychologist and distinguished speaker. Throughout his life, he confided his thoughts and emotions to his notebooks, where we can still see his speculations and observations taking shape. This edition presents a selection from this unique work, newly presented, with
notes and commentary, for the student as well as the general reader.Readership: General readers interested in the writings of Coleridge, as well as students and scholars in the field.

"Every single page of this precious book yields up riches. No one interested in human thought and feeling should be without it." - Stephen Romer, Guardian Review "fhese impassioned little jottings and snippets reveal the philosopher in the poet more clearly than any of his more ponderous works, and they are lovely to dip into." - Daily Telegraph, 23 November 2002 "A marvellously judged and varied selection." - P J Kavanagh, Spectator, 14 September 2002 "An invaluable aid for all those interested in this fertile writer's private life." - Contemporary Review
