Autorenporträt
Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) was a seminal English poet, critic, philosopher, and theologian who, alongside his close friend William Wordsworth, was a foundational figure of the Romantic movement. His contributions to the literary world include some of the most iconic poems of the era, such as 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' and 'Kubla Khan.' Coleridge's literary prowess extended beyond his poetry; he was also a well-regarded lecturer and a profound literary critic. His lectures on William Shakespeare have been particularly influential, not listed as a separate book entitled 'Shakespeare' but found as a collection of his critical works. Coleridge's insights into Shakespeare's texts were ahead of his time, emphasizing the bard's genius in areas such as dramatic structure and psychological depth. His critical approach combined both a profound intuition and an analytical depth which has been reflected in numerous essays and marginalia. Coleridge's work is marked by a rich imagination, a deep concern with the human condition, and a unique blend of the philosophical and the poetic. His exploration of the intricacies of consciousness and the lyrical quality of his prose have left a lasting impact on literature and criticism. Indeed, his thoughts on Shakespeare contributed significantly to the understanding and appreciation of the playwright's works in the centuries that followed.
