Abstract

Sara Coleridge and the Oxford Movement presents Sara Coleridge's religious writings to modern readers for the first time. It includes extracts from her important religious works which have remained unpublished since the 1840s. These writings present a forthright and eloquent challenge to the patriarchal hegemonies of Victorian religion and society. They represent a bold intervention by a woman writer in the public spheres of academia and the Church, in the genre of religious writing which was a masculine preserve (as opposed to the genres of religious fiction and poetry). The religious writings published by Sara Coleridge in the 1840s present the most original and systematic critique of the Tractarian theology developed by John Henry Newman, Edward Pusey, John Keble and their colleagues. Sara Coleridge advances against a theology which she regards as repressive, authoritarian and conceptually flawed, a radical Protestant religion of inward experience and reason, underpinned by a Kantian epistemology. The passages reveal Sara Coleridge's concerns with the language of religious discourse, which drove her later developments in religious prose. This book also consists of passages selected from Sara Coleridge's unpublished masterpiece 'Dialogues on Regeneration', written in the last two years of her life.

Abstract

"'PHILOSOPHY, or the doctrine and discipline of ideas' as S. T. Coleridge understood it, is the theme of this book. It considers the most vital and mature vein of Coleridge's prose writings to be 'the contemplation of ideas objectively, as existing powers'. A theory of ideas emerges in critical engagement with thinkers including Plato, Plotinus, Böhme, Kant, and Schelling. A commitment to the transcendence of reason, central to what he calls 'the spiritual platonic old England', distinguishes him from his German contemporaries. This book pursues a theory of contemplation that draws from Coleridge's theories of imagination and the 'Ideas of Reason' in his published texts and extensively from his thoughts as they developed throughout published works, fragments, letters, and notebooks. He posited a hierarchy of cognition from basic sense intuition to the apprehension of scientific, ethical, and theological ideas. The structure of the book follows this thesis, beginning with sense data, moving upwards into aesthetic experience, imagination, and reason, with final chapters on formal logic and poetry that constellate the contemplation of ideas. Coleridge's Contemplative Philosophy is not just a work of history of philosophy, it addresses a figure whose thinking is of continuing interest, arguing that contemplation of ideas and values has consequences for everyday morality and aesthetics, as well as metaphysics. The book also illuminates Coleridge's prose by analysis of his poetry, notably the 'Limbo' sequence. The volume will be of interest to philosophers, intellectual historians, scholars of religion, and of literature"--

Abstract

"Lyrical Ballads (1798) is a work of huge cultural and literary significance. This volume of poetry in which Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere and Wordsworth's Lines written above Tintern Abbey were first published lies at the heart of British Romanticism, establishing a poetics of powerful feeling that is, nonetheless, expressed in direct, conversational language and explores the everyday realities of common life. This engaging, accessible collection provides a comprehensive overview of current approaches to Lyrical Ballads, enabling readers to find fresh ways of understanding and responding to the volume. Sally Bushell's introduction explores how the Preface to the second edition (1800) became a potent manifesto for the Romantic movement. Broad in scope, the Companion includes accessible essays on Wordsworth's experiments with language and metre, ecocritical approaches, the reception of the volume in America and more, furnishing students and scholars with a range of entry points to this seminal text"--

Abstract

Durant toute sa vie, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, poète et philosophe romantique anglais, a consigné ses pensées et ses observations sous forme de fragments dans des Notebooks. Derrière cette écriture mosaïque se dessine l’histoire d’un esprit nourri d’une insatiable curiosité pour le monde naturel et la psyché humaine. Libre de toute contrainte, l’espace des Notebooks est peut-être celui qui s’ajuste le mieux au rythme si particulier de la pensée du poète. S’articulant autour de trois notions, l’entrelacs, le mouvement et la réversibilité, cet ouvrage propose de saisir le rythme et les variations d’une écriture et d’une pensée qualifiées par Coleridge de « polypiennes ». L’écriture des premiers carnets, essentiellement nomade, témoigne d’un plaisir de pérégriner et se nourrit de l’énergie d’un corps en mouvement. Toutefois, au fil du temps, le regard du poète substitue le diffus et l’absence à l’espace géopoétique. Que l’écriture carnétiste de Coleridge soit travaillée par l’énergie de l’intellect ou par l’affect mélancolique, elle est toujours mue par un dynamisme créateur. Ce qui rend ces textes si fascinants, c’est peut-être le refus ou l’inaptitude du poète à choisir ; Coleridge est toujours resté au « seuil de », ne franchissant jamais cette ligne qui aurait pu en faire soit un poète mystique, soit un poète maudit.

Abstract

How can Romantic poetry, motivated by the poet's intense yearning to impart his thoughts and feelings, be so often difficult and the cause of readerly misunderstanding? How did it come to be that a poet can compose a verbal artwork, carefully and lovingly put together, and send it out into the world at the same time that he is adopting a stance against communication? This book addresses these questions by showing that the period's writers were responding to the beginnings of our networked world of rampant mediated communication. The Connected Condition reveals that major Romantic poets shared a great attraction and skepticism toward the dream of perfectible, efficient connectivity that has driven the modern culture of communication.

Abstract

'Tom Marshall’s erudite study provides what is by some distance the most comprehensive treatment of Coleridge’s relation to the phenomenological tradition. Marshall’s lucid and provocative analysis defends both the individual poet, and the wider idealist tradition to which he belongs, from the common charge of abstraction. Coleridge stands revealed to us rather as a thinker for whom the most profound philosophical questions turn on the question—and the experience—of sensuous immediacy.' - Dr Ewan James Jones, University of Cambridge, UK This book re-evaluates the philosophical status of Samuel Taylor Coleridge by providing an extended comparison between his work and the phenomenological theory of Edmund Husserl. Examining Coleridge’s accounts of the imagination, perception, poetic creativity and literary criticism, it draws a systematic and coherent structure out of a range of Coleridge’s philosophical writing. In addition, it also applies the principles of Coleridge’s philosophy to an interpretation of his own poetic output.
