Summary

"The Complete Poetical Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Vol 1 and 2" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge is a compilation from the 20th century that presents a wide array of poetry and dramatic pieces. It offers a look into Coleridge's creative process, featuring well-known poems alongside lesser-known works, fragments, and early versions. The collection explores a range of subjects, from the beauty of nature to philosophical questions and personal thoughts. These carefully selected poems trace Coleridge's growth as a poet and his talent for expressing deep emotions through striking images and poetic language, beginning with joyful celebrations of youth and nature, like in “Easter Holidays,” and moving to darker explorations of loss and creative struggle, as seen in “Dura Navis” and “Monody on the Death of Chatterton.”
