Produktbeschreibung

The Complete Plays of Samuel Taylor Coleridge showcases the profound imagination and innovative narrative style characteristic of one of the foremost figures of the Romantic movement. Comprising Coleridge's theatrical works, this collection reflects a synthesis of gothic elements, philosophical inquiry, and exploration of the supernatural, inviting readers into a world where the boundaries between reality and dreams blur. Notable plays such as "Osorio" and "Remorse" illustrate his mastery of blank verse, driving emotional intensity through richly developed characters and themes that resonate with the existential dilemmas of human experience. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, a prominent poet, critic, and philosopher, was deeply influenced by the intellectual currents of his time, including the German idealism that shaped his philosophical outlook. His explorations in poetry-especially in the realm of psychological depth and moral ambiguity-found fertile ground in his plays, which often tackle conflicts of the soul. Coleridge's own struggles with mental health and his passionate engagement with the natural world imbue these works with a sense of urgency and introspection, reflective of his broader literary ambitions. This collection is a must-read for scholars and enthusiasts of Romantic literature, offering an essential glimpse into Coleridge's theatrical vision. For readers interested in the evolution of drama and its intersection with poetry, "The Complete Plays of Samuel Taylor Coleridge" serves not only as an aesthetic delight but also as a crucial addition to the understanding of literature's role in navigating the complexities of the human condition.
