The aim here has been to examine his experiences, moods, thoughts, and reactions as a whole and their relation to poems such as \u003cem\u003eChristabel\u003c\/em\u003e, the\u003cem\u003e Ancient Mariner\u003c\/em\u003e, and the \u003cem\u003eDejection\u003c\/em\u003e ode, and to his prose works, and also to look at many of his own statements made mainly in the privacy of his notebooks about his aims and purposes. The result of the new compound should alter some of the uninformed and prejudiced generalizations about Coleridge. The new picture is of a man and poet more human, more inquiring, more sceptical, whose strength and intellectual stature can fully be understood only against a background of suffering and loneliness; a critical, radical imagination is seen not only struggling to survive but to achieve creatively in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the world's pre-eminent Coleridge scholars, Kathleen Coburn brings a long association with and intimate knowledge of Coleridge's writings, both published and unpublished, to this sensitive study of a complex mind and personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKathleen Coburn\u003c\/strong\u003e (1905-1991) was a professor emeritus of English at the University of Toronto, General Editor of the \u003cem\u003eCollected Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge\u003c\/em\u003e, and editor of the \u003cem\u003eNotebooks\u003c\/em\u003e.
