description: Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) was one of the most versatile minds in European intellectual history, and a shaping influence in the development of English poetry. As a radical young poet in the years following the French revolution, he collaborated with Wordsworth in Lyrical Ballads(1798) and was by turns a dramatist, political journalist, lecturer, and religious thinker. Included in this volume are Kubla Khan , and The Rime of the Ancient Mariner , as well as such blank-verse "conversation" poems as The Eolian Harp , This Lime Tree Bower , My Prison , and Frost at Midnight . Anaccessible and informative Notes and Introduction further illuminate the work of one of the most significant poets of the Romantic period.
