"This delightfully edited selection of the journals of Samuel Taylor Coleridge...reintroduces the general reader to one of the most fascinating characters in literary history.... Coleridge's Notebooks belong with St. Augustine's Confessions as evidence of the seriousness with which one may take the Socratic command, 'know thyself'.... Dipped into or read through (the commentary is always helpful and at times eloquent; with commentary, these selections very nearly comprise an autobiography), Coleridge's Notebooks brings us as close as can be to the great Romantic, and at times perhaps uncomfortably close to our unacknowledged selves."--The Providence Journal"[A] brilliantly edited selection, which must now be an indispensable item on any Coleridge bibliography.... [This volume] deftly and concisely explain[s] the debates of the time, ranging over such burning issues as unitarianism, associationism, pantheism and Spinozism, which Coleridge refers to frequently. More importantly, it puts the poet's philosophical and theological arguments with himself... firmly into the context of his own life.... Every single page of this precious book yields up riches.

Synopsis
Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the Romantic Age's most enigmatic figures, a genius of astonishing diversity; author of some of the most famous poems in the English language, and co-author, with Wordsworth, of Lyrical Ballads; one of England's greatest critics and theorists of literature and imagination; as well as autobiographer, nature-writer, philosopher, theologian, psychologist and distinguished speaker. Throughout his life, he confided his thoughts and emotions to his notebooks, where we can still see his speculations and observations taking shape. This edition presents a selection from this unique work, newly presented, with notes and commentary, for the student as well as the general reader., Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the Romantic age's most enigmatic figures, a genius of astonishing diversity; author of some of the most famous poems in the English language; one of England's greatest critics and theorists of literature and imagination; as well as autobiographer, nature-writer, philosopher, theologian, psychologist, and talker.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
