Sobre IBD

This literary life of the best-loved of all the major Romantic writers uses Coleridge’s own Biographia Literaria as its starting point and destination. The most sustained criticism and ambitious theory that had ever been attempted in English, the Biographia was Coleridge’s major statement to an embattled literary culture in which he sought to define and defend, not just his own, but all imaginative life. This book offers a reading of Coleridge and his life in the context of that culture and the institutions that comprised it, and is a ’must-read’ for any student or scholar of Coleridge.
