John Keble, M.A. Late Vicar of Hursley: 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The First and Best Biography of John Keble - But only Volume 1By Fr. Charles ErlandsonFirst, be aware that this is only Volume 1 of Keble's biography and will not cover significant aspects of his life.One of the great mysteries and oversights of history is why an adequate modern biography of John Keble remains unwritten. It seems a tragedy to me (since I studied Keble for 3 years for my Ph.D. in Religious Studies) that the best biography of Keble is still the first one, written in 1869 by J.T. Coleridge, 3 years after Keble's death. Other biographies of Keble have been written since Coleridge's, but, in spite of the 19th century style of biography represented by this work, none of them are as good.The most recent biography of Keble is Georgina Battiscombe's "John Keble: A Study in Limitations." What kind of biographer subtitles the biography of her subject: "A Study in Limitations"?! That all men have limitations is self-evident. The irony is that the nearly unanimous consensus of Keble's peers and contemporaries was that he was a modern-day saint. It is astounding that the most recent biography of a man of Keble's stature is now almost 50 years old. What's even more baffling and disappointing is that no one has bothered to edit Keble's letters.J.T. Coleridge was a close family friend of John Keble (and a relative of Samuel Taylor Coleridge) and had access to the necessary persons and documents (as well as his own remembrances) to write Keble's first biography. Coleridge's biography is very sympathetic to Keble without being too hagiographical. It is filled with wonderful remembrances of the actual life of Keble, something that is difficult for later biographers to reconstruct, and throughout the work Coleridge provides a good sample of some of the more important correspondence of Keble.Coleridge proceeds chronologically with Keble's life and gives adequate attention to all of the important periods and events in Keble's life: his stellar career as a student in Oxford; his meeting Newman at Oxford (Keble was 9 years Newman's senior and originally Newman was in awe of Keble); his writing of "The Christian Year" in 1827 and his consequent fame; his role in the Oxford Movement and the writing of the Tracts for the Times, as well as his role in the ensuing controversies; his decision to stay in the Church of England and help preserve it when Newman left for Rome; his faithful pastoring of his little flock at Hursley for the last 35 years of his life; and his later years.What emerges from Coleridge's work is a three-dimensional picture of John Keble: the faithful pastor, famous poet, influential professor, and one of the most beloved men in England in the 19th century. It is still a work reading, not only because it remains the best biography of Keble but because in many ways Keble is a man to admire and imitate. While Coleridge doesn't gloss over Keble's limitations, his biography is a worthy tribute to one of the most influential men in the history of Anglicanism, but also one of the most forgotten.I heartily recommend this biography of a major and compelling 19th century figure and am grateful that it has now been republished.

  • ABSTRACT Genius, Heredity, and Family Dynamics. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and His Children: a Literary Biography Yolanda J. Gonz
    ABSTRACT Genius, Heredity, and Family Dynamics. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and his Children: A Literary Biography Yolanda J. Gonzalez, Ph.D. Chairperson: Stephen Prickett, Ph.D. The children of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Hartley, Derwent, and Sara, have received limited scholarly attention, though all were important nineteenth century figures. Lack of scholarly attention on them can be blamed on their father, who has so overshadowed his children that their value has been relegated to what they can reveal about him, the literary genius. Scholars who have studied the children for these purposes all assume familial ties justify their basic premise, that Coleridge can be understood by examining the children he raised. But in this case, the assumption is false; Coleridge had little interaction with his children overall, and the task of raising them was left to their mother, Sara, her sister Edith, and Edith’s husband, Robert Southey. While studies of S. T. C.’s children that seek to provide information about him are fruitless, more productive scholarly work can be done examining the lives and contributions of Hartley, Derwent, and Sara to their age. This dissertation is a starting point for reinvestigating Coleridge’s children and analyzes their life and work. Taken out from under the shadow of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, we find that Hartley was not doomed to be a “child of romanticism” as a result of his father’s experimental approach to his education; rather, he chose this persona for himself. Conversely, Derwent is the black sheep of the family and consciously chooses not to undertake the family profession, writing poetry.

Abstract This thesis aims to establish Sara Coleridge’s place in literary history. Her authorial achievements have been obscured by two factors. First, she has been the subject of predominantly biographical, rather than literary attention. While this thesis does draw on specific biographical contexts, its approach is literary and critical throughout. Second, Coleridge’s mature writings are theological, and consist of polemical contributions to religious debate in the two decades following the Reform Act of 1832. In order to analyse the qualities of Coleridge’s mature authorship, this study undertakes the necessary historical and theological contextualization. Coleridge’s politico-religious setting requires innovatory authorial methods: she is, above all, a dialogic writer. The thesis examines her evolving dialogue with her ‘literary fathers’, and addresses the relationship between her editing of STC and her original writing. Bakhtinian theory informs the approach of this thesis to Coleridge’s textual analysis of STC and his sources. Gadamer’s hermeneutic concept of the ‘fusion’ of historical ‘horizons’ informs the study’s analysis of her appropriation of STC’s thought, which she reworks in addressing post-Reform fractures.

  • The Cambridge Companion to Coleridge
    The Cambridge Companion to Coleridge Samuel Taylor Coleridge is one of the most influential, as well as one of the most enigmatic, of all Romantic figures. The possessor of a precocious talent, he dazzled contemporaries with his poetry, journalism, philosophy and oratory without ever quite living up to his early promise, or overcoming problems of dependency and drug addiction. The Cambridge Companion to Coleridge does full justice to the many facets of Coleridge’s life, thought and writing. Specially commissioned essays focus on his major poems, including ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ and ‘Christabel’, his Notebooks, and his major work of non-fiction, the Biographia Literaria. Attention is given to his role as talker, journalist, critic and philosopher; to his politics, his religion, and his reputation in his own times and afterwards. A chronology and guides to further reading complete the volume, making this an indispensable guide to Coleridge and his work. lucy newlyn is Fellow and Tutor in English at St Edmund Hall, Oxford. She is an authority on Coleridge and Wordsworth, and has published exten- sively on English Romanticism. Her publications include Coleridge, Words- worth and the Language of Allusion (1986), ‘Paradise Lost’ and the Romantic Reader (1993), and Reading, Writing and Romanticism: The Anxiety of Reception (2000), all with Oxford University Press.

I have endeavoured to share with others my impressions, my knowledge, of Charlotte Yonge. I have tried as far as I can to show her as she was in herself, so that her fine example may be made known far and wide, rather than to chronicle the small events of her very quiet life in regular order. In one way the task has been easy, for so consistent, so harmonious a life has surely never been described, and rarely been lived. Her daily life, her published writings, her letters to' friends and relatives, are all in accordance with each other. No inconsistent nor disappointing record has, or ever can, leap to light where she was concerned.

  • 'Taste and See That the Lord Is Good' (Ps. 34:8): the Continuity and Transformation of the Spiritual Senses Tradition
    ‘Taste and see that the Lord is good’ (Ps. 34:8): The Continuity and Transformation of the Spiritual Senses Tradition -Dr. Brandon Gallaher Lecturer of Systematic and Comparative Theology Department Theology and Religion, University of Exeter The Spiritual Senses Tradition: Origen and Scripture There is a tradition in Christian East and West dating back to at least Origen of Alexandria (c. 185-c.254) that human beings have the capacity to see, hear, smell, taste and touch God or spiritual and ineffable realities given that they possess a special organ or organs: the spiritual senses.1 Thus Origen writes about seeing God with the ‘eyes of the mind’, hearing divine instructions with ‘spiritual ears’, ‘smelling […] with no sensible organs of perception’, a ‘taste that feeds on living bread that has come down from heaven’ and finally he describes a ‘sense of touch for handling the word of life.’2 For Origen there existed certain divine senses of the inner man as for every external organ of sense of the external man there existed a corresponding sense in the inner man. He elaborates this teaching of the divine sense of the inner human being through an exegesis of the notion in Paul of the ‘inmost self’ (Rom. 7:22) and the ‘inner nature’ of humanity (2 Cor. 4:16). He even quotes an ancient Greek non- Septuagint version of the Old Testament Proverbs 2:5 that ‘You shall find a divine sense.’ 1 The most easily accessible study is the landmark work, The Spiritual Senses: Perceiving God on Western Christianity, eds.

  • The Letters of Charlotte Mary Yonge
    The Letters of Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823-1901) edited by Charlotte Mitchell, Ellen Jordan and Helen Schinske. 1 The Letters of Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823-1901) Charlotte Yonge is one of the most influential and important of Victorian women writers; but study of her work has been handicapped by a tendency to patronise both her and her writing, by the vast number of her publications and by a shortage of information about her professional career. Scholars have had to depend mainly on the work of her first biographer, a loyal disciple, a situation which has long been felt to be unsatisfactory. We hope that this edition of her correspondence will provide for the first time a substantial foundation of facts for the study of her fiction, her historical and educational writing and her journalism, and help to illuminate her biography and also her significance in the cultural and religious history of the Victorian age. This site currently includes all letters known to us written by Yonge before 1859 (with a few relevant letters by others): further sections will be added in chronological order and the index improved. At present the material is arranged as follows: Contents: THIS EDITION AND ITS EDITORIAL PRINCIPLES ...............................................2 GENERAL INTRODUCTION......................................................................................4 INTRODUCTION TO LETTERS 1836-1849...............................................................6 LETTERS 1834-1849 ..................................................................................................15
