Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Miscellanies, Aesthetic and Literary: To Which Is Added the Theory of Life In Coleridge´s Table Talk, under the date Jan. 1, 1834, we find the following remark: - "I exceedingly regret the loss of those essays on beauty, which I wrote in a Bristol newspaper. I would give much to recover them." Coleridge´s son-in-law and editor, Henry Nelson Coleridge, appends a note to this passage in his first edition, of 1835: - "I preserve the conclusion of this passage, in the hope of its attracting the attention of some person who may have local or personal advantages in making a search for these essays, upon which Mr. C. set a high value. He had an indistinct recollection of the subject, but told me that, to the best of his belief, the Essays were published in the Bristol Mercury, a paper belonging to Mr. Gutch. The years in which the inquiry should be made, would be, I presume, 1807 and 1808." As Coleridge was in Bristol in 1807, his nephew´s guess is reasonable; but it is strange that Coleridge himself should have been so oblivious, even though now in a dying condition, of 1813-14, when he stayed so long in Bristol, and delivered so many lectures. However, Cottle of Bristol evidently took the hint. He found the Essays in Felix Farley´s Bristol Journal, for 1814.
