Z Samuel Taylor Coleridge Poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge was famous for dreamy and somewhat creepy poems like The Rime of the Ancient Mariner Christabel and Kubla Khan (the last of which he allegedly wrote subconsciously during a fever dream). Coleridge and poet William Wordsworth were close pals and their collection of poetry titled Lyrical Ballads (1798) was an early pillar of what became known as the Romantic movement in poetry and art. Coleridge is probably best known for a poem from that collection, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner , which describes a sailor who curses himself and his ship by killing an albatross. Coleridge is also remembered for his turbulent personal life, especially his decades-long addiction to opium. Extra credit The Rime of the Ancient Mariner includes the famous lines, "Water, water, every where / Nor any drop to drink"... Opium addiction was not a novelty among writers of the era. Others who indulged included Thomas de Quincey and Elizabeth Barrett Browning Four Good Links Samuel Taylor Coleridge The Victorian Web puts it all in historical context Incompetech: S.T. Coleridge

So twice five miles of fertile ground With walls and towers were girdled round: And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills, Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree; And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover! A savage place! as holy and enchanted As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon-lover! And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing, A mighty fountain momently was forced: Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail, Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail: And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever It flung up momently the sacred river. Five miles meandering with a mazy motion Through wood and dale the sacred river ran

Exclusively of the abstract sciences, the largest and worthiest portion of our knowledge consists of aphorisms: and the greatest and best of men is but an aphorism. Alas! they had been friends in youth; But whispering tongues can poison truth. Rights! There are no rights whatever without corresponding duties. Look at the history of the growth of our constitution, and you will see that our ancestors never upon any occasion stated, as a ground for claiming any of their privileges, an abstract right inherent in themselves; you will nowhere in our parliamentary records find the miserable sophism of the Rights of Man.

67. Magellan's Log: The Willed Suspension Of Belief It fell to that bane of high school English students, samuel taylor coleridge, to give perfect voice to one of these ideas http://www.texaschapbookpress.com/magellanslog8/disbelief.htm

S.T. Coleridge, his own self. The Willed Suspension of Belief by Douglas Milburn The end of the 18 th century marks the beginning of the long, modern fertile period . Between 1750 and 1800 ideas flowered in a spring so rich that it has many names: Enlightenment, Sturm und Drang , Romanticism. Some of the ideas (liberty, fraternity, equality, for example) spilled over into the world of action and changed history. Others (irony, for one) were subtler but no less powerful and would have a long-range effect right up to the present. It fell to that bane of high school English students, Samuel Taylor Coleridge , to give perfect voice to one of these ideas: "The willing suspension of disbelief." The idea was very much in the air of Europe at the time but Coleridge figured out how to say it in five words, words so well chosen that nobody needed to say it again or differently. His original turn of the phrase was in reference to the reader's response to poetry, but everyone immediately realized he had summarized most of the human experience of art a willing suspension of disbelief . That is if the spectator/participant wants to enjoy the experience. The world we enter may be great (Hamlet) or small (South Park), grandiose (Wagner) or trivial (Goldilocks). No matter. Our minds are for a while set free and we enjoy a dream created by others for our pleasure.

It is the honourable characteristic of Poetry that its materials are to be found in every subject which can interest the human mind. The evidence of this fact is to be sought, not in the writings of Critics, but in those of Poets themselves. Readers of superior judgment may disapprove of the style in which many of these pieces are executed[. I]t must be expected that many lines and phrases will not exactly suit their taste. It will perhaps appear to them, that wishing to avoid the prevalent fault of the day, the author has sometimes descended too low, and that many of his expressions are too familiar, and not of sufficient dignity. It is apprehended, that the more conversant the reader is with our elder writers, and with those in modern times who have been the most successful in painting manners and passions, the fewer complaints of this kind will he have to make.

If the breath Be Life itself, and not its task and tent, If even a soul like Milton's can know death ; O Man ! thou vessel purposeless, unmeant, Yet drone-hive strange of phantom purposes ! Surplus of Nature's dread activity, Which, as she gazed on some nigh-finished vase, Retreating slow, with meditative pause, She formed with restless hands unconsciously. Blank accident ! nothing's anomaly ! If rootless thus, thus substanceless thy state, Go, weigh thy dreams, and be thy hopes, thy fears, The counter-weights !Thy laughter and thy tears Mean but themselves, each fittest to create And to repay the other ! Why rejoices Thy heart with hollow joy for hollow good ?

He was handicapped by his impulsive and impractical nature, which caused him to leave many projects uncompleted. Nevertheless, he created poetry of unique beauty and power.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge Samuel Taylor Coleridge called inhaling N O "the most unmingled pleasure" he had ever experienced. Coleridge is better known for his laudanum and poetry habit than his love of inhaled gases. But he visited Clifton, Bristol to try out Humphry Davy 's purified nitrous oxide for recreational purposes, as did Lakeland poet Robert Southey , potter Josiah Wedgwood , and Peter Mark Roget of Roget's Thesaurus fame. Coleridge's interest in chemisty extended beyond intoxication. He was once asked why he attended so many public lectures on chemistry in London. Coleridge replied: "To improve my stock of metaphors." next HOME Search Resources ... Anaesthesia and Anaesthetics
