Lyrical Ballads and other Poems by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth represents a seminal collaboration that marked the dawn of the Romantic Movement in English literature. This collection encompasses a diversity of themes and literary styles, ranging from the tranquility of nature to the tumults of the human psyche, effectively capturing the quintessence of Romanticism''s valorization of emotion and nature. Notable for its innovative use of common language within lyrical poetry, the anthology stands as a defiant departure from the more ornate, classical forms that preceded it, thereby redefining the literary landscape of its time. The backgrounds of Wordsworth and Coleridge, both pivotal figures of the Romantic era, offer a rich tapestry of cultural and intellectual contexts that inform this collection. Their collaborative effort not only underscored the personal and philosophical kinship between the two poets but also crystallized the defining characteristics of Romantic literature: an emphasis on emotion, a focus on the individual''s experience of the sublime, and a deep reverence for nature. Through their works, they championed a new, accessible poetic diction, significantly influencing subsequent literary movements and generations of poets. This anthology is recommended for readers seeking to immerse themselves in the lyrical beauty and thematic depth of the Romantic era. Lyrical Ballads and other Poems presents a unique opportunity to experience the converging visions of Wordsworth and Coleridge, whose collective genius reshaped poetic expression.

This final volume of Bollingen Series L covers the material Coleridge wrote in his notebooks between January 1827 and his death in 1834. In these years, Coleridge made use of the notebooks for his most sustained and far-reaching inquiries, very little of which resulted in publication in any form during his lifetime. Twenty-eight notebooks are here published in their entirety for the first time; entries dated 1827 or later from several more notebooks also appear in this volume. Following previous practice for the edition, notes appear in a companion volume. Coleridge''s intellectual interests were wide, encompassing not only literature and philosophy but the political crises of his time, scientific and medical breakthroughs, and contemporary developments in psychology, archaeology, philology, biblical criticism, and the visual arts. In these years, he met and conversed with eminent writers, scholars, scientists, churchmen, politicians, physicians, and artists. He planned a major work on Logic (still unpublished at his death), and an outline of Christian doctrine, also unfinished, though his work toward this project contributed to On the Constitution of the Church and State (1830) and the revised Aids to Reflection (1831). The reader of these notebooks has the opportunity to see what one of the most admired minds of the English-speaking world thought on several issues--such as race and empire, science and medicine, democracy (particularly in reaction to the Reform Bills introduced in 1831 and 1832), and the authority of the Bible--when he wrote without fear of public disapprobation or controversy.
