Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Coleridge Wordsworth, writing to Daniel Stuart after Coleridge´s death, says, "Coleridge is a subject which no biographer ought to touch beyond what he himself was eye-witness of." If this is to be taken literally, many have laboured in vain! It may be hoped, however, that Wordsworth intended his remarks solely for the benefit of contemporaries; at all events the biographers have now come in like a flood, and it is too late to lift up a banner against them. It must, nevertheless, be admitted that in treating of Coleridge´s life it is easier to be interesting than absolutely authentic. The bare external facts are well ascertained, but their significance chiefly consists in their relation to a spiritual history which, from the nature of the case, can be but imperfectly detailed, and which must remain obscure in many particulars. Psychologically, Coleridge is one of the most interesting personages ever submitted to human contemplation, and it is impossible to avoid continual reference to the workings of his mind while relating the events of his life.
