  This book is part of the Everyman series which has been re-set with wide margins and easy-to-read type and includes a themed introduction, a chronology of the life and times of the author, notes and selected criticism. This is a selection of Coleridge's most important poems, revealing psychological insight, extraordinary imagination, philosophical leaps and depth of feeling. His unique evocation of the full destructive power of man's own creative demon in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner , down to the curiosity of a small film of soot on a grate are revealed in this volume. The text is based on a close examination of the earliest editions, and Coleridge's illuminating amendments to his poetry over the years are traced.

  Coleridge is the most complex and brilliant, yet the most elusive and intense of the great Romantic writers. This selection of verse and prose displays the extraordinary scope of his mind, the power of his imagination and the virtuosity of his literary gifts. It also reveals that behind the glittering surface of familiar masterpieces - The Ancient Mariner, Kubla Khan, Christabel, the Biographia - there is a great but unknown poet still waiting to be discovered.
