Title: Coleridge and the psychology of Romanticism
First published: 1999
Description: "In addition to being the leading philosopher of English Romanticism and one of its greatest poets, Coleridge explores the dynamics of consciousness and mental functioning more extensively than any of his contemporaries.

Here his psychological theories are compared with his diverse exemplifications of Romanticism's self-reflexive quest for transcendence, showing how he continually highlights the circular and mutual influence of thought and emotion underlying Romantic idealism and the cult of the sublime."--BOOK JACKET.
