""English Men of Letters: Coleridge"" is a biographical work on the life of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, one of the most influential poets and thinkers of the Romantic era. The book is written by H.D. Traill, a prominent literary critic and historian of the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of Coleridge's life, from his childhood in Devonshire to his years as a student at Cambridge University and his later travels to Germany and Italy. It explores his relationships with other writers and thinkers of his time, including William Wordsworth, Robert Southey, and Thomas De Quincey, and his struggles with addiction and mental illness. Traill also delves into Coleridge's literary works, including his poetry, essays, and critical writings, analyzing their themes and style and placing them within the context of the Romantic movement. The book is a comprehensive and engaging portrait of one of the most fascinating and complex figures of English literature.When, then, and how did this slavery begin? What was the precise date of Coleridge's first experiences of opium, and what the original cause of his taking it? Within what time did its use become habitual? To what extent was the decline of his health the effect of the evil habit, and to what, if any, extent its cause? And how far, if at all, can the deterioration of his character and powers be attributed to a decay of physical constitution, brought about by influences beyond the sufferer's own control?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
