Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)

View through CrossRef
Abstract In the years before the landmark volume Lyrical Ballads (1798), coauthored with William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge played a crucial role in the sonnet revival. In 1796, he published the sequence Sonnets on Eminent Characters and a small pamphlet Sonnets from various Authors, which is the first edited collection of sonnets from the late eighteenth-century revival. Cole­ ridge is best known for his wildly imaginative and metrically innovative poems such as “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner;’ “Christabel,” and “Kubla Khan;’ as well as his prose works on literary theory and theology. Coleridge once remarked to fellow sonneteer John Thelwall, “I love Sonnets; but upon my honor I do not love my sonnets.”
