Coleridge's Imperfect Circles
Coleridge’s Imperfect Circles Patrick Biggs A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Literature Victoria University of Wellington 2012 2 Contents Abstract 3 Acknowledgements 4 Note on Abbreviations 5 Introduction 6 The Eolian Harp 16 This Lime-Tree Bower My Prison 37 Frost at Midnight 60 Conclusion 83 Bibliography 91 3 Abstract This thesis takes as its starting point Coleridge’s assertion that “[t]he common end of all . Poems is . to make those events which in real or imagined History move in a strait [sic] Line, assume to our Understandings a circular motion” (CL 4: 545). Coleridge’s so-called “Conversation” poems seem to conform most conspicuously to this aesthetic theory, structured as they are to return to their starting points at their conclusions. The assumption, however, that this comforting circular structure is commensurate with the sense of these poems can be questioned, for the conclusions of the “Conversation” poems are rarely, if ever, reassuring. The formal circularity of these poems is frequently achieved more by persuasive rhetoric than by any cohesion of elements. The circular structure encourages the reader’s expectations of unity and synthesis, but ultimately these expectations are disappointed, and instead the reader is surprised by an ending more troubling than the rhetoric of return and reassurance would suggest. Taking three “Conversation” poems as case studies (“The Eolian Harp,” “This Lime-Tree Bower My Prison,” and “Frost at Midnight”), this thesis attempts to explicate those tensions which exist in the “Conversation” poems between form and effect, between structure and sense. -

A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University September, 1972 MASTER OF ARTS (1972) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, On"tario TITLE: Coleridge's Conception of Sin in "The Ancient Mariner" AUTHOR: Richard Stuart Birch, B .. A" (University of Waterloo) SUPERVISED: Dro We J e B. Owen NUMBER OF PAGES: vi t 121 ii PRJt.,'FACE The bulk and variety of criticism on Samuel Taylor Coleridge's liThe Rime of the Ancient Mariner" attest to the fact that I am not alone in expressing a dissatisfaction with the critical response over the last hillldred years to the poem. The Mariner has been seen variously as a pa\'m in the cosmic game of Hartleian Necessi ty by Ss Fo Gingerich, as a commentator upon the imagination by Hobert Penn vfarren, as a man in search of an identity who asserts the validity ,of his existence by Harold Bloom, and as a figure who undergoes an adventure comparable to that of the epic hero by Karl Kroeber. I am attracted most (although certainly not convinced) to these final two approaches, both of which stress an attitude of free \'lill rather than mechanistic behaviour, and \-,hich suggest something similar to a. Christian existentia.l a.pproach to the poem. Coleridge's devotion to Hartley and his philosophy of Necessity as detailed in the early letters and poetry is \'lidely known. -
Revisiting Coleridge's Figure of 'My Pensive Sara'
‘Restore me to Reality’ Revisiting Coleridge’s Figure of ‘My pensive Sara’ Catherine E. Ross ____________________________________________________________________________________________ A relation (always social) determines the terms and not the reverse. Michel De Certeau 1 y Pensive Sara’ is the name Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Charles Lamb ‘M habitually used to refer to the poem that we now call ‘The Eolian Harp.’ STC often quoted portions of this lyric in his letters and told friends in 1796 it was ‘my favorite of my poems.’2 Today, speaking for the majority of critics, Paul Magnuson has aptly labeled ‘The Eolian Harp’ ‘one of Coleridge’s most important and romanticism’s most seminal poems.’3 Scholars cite various reasons for ‘The Eolian Harp’s pride of place: among them are its inaugural expression of the ‘grand Romantic idea of the ‘One life’ ’;4 its depictions of the Romantic imagination at work;5 and its innovative and distinctive conversational structure.6 While these and other commentaries on the poem have made important contributions to critical understanding of this text, none, to my mind, has looked carefully or kindly enough at Coleridge’s original representation of the character who signals the crisis at the heart of the narrative, the speaker’s beloved, if pensive, Sara. To revisit and perhaps resuscitate the figure of ‘Sara,’ I shall focus upon certain events, relationships, and texts in Coleridge’s life that date from 1790 to 1796, the years leading up to and including the composition and publication of the earliest version of ‘The Eolian Harp’ in Poems on Various Subjects (1796). -

The Act of Love in Coleridge's Conversation Poems
SYDNEY STUDIES The Act of Love in Coleridge's Conversation Poems WILLIAM CHRISTIE When George McLean Harper first identified Coleridge's Con versation poems in an essay published in 1925, he wrote of them in a casual, elegant, and amateurish way that one recent critic dismissed as belletristic.1 Harper begins by introducing a person -"a young poet whom I love"-and a problem: what should he write about Coleridge? What is more he begins with a particu larity of personal reference that would amount to gross impro priety in a contemporary critical essay; the young poet, Harper says, "has just left my house and driven away in the soft darkness of a spring night, to the remote cottage in the Delaware valley where he meditates a not thankless Muse".2 Contemporary lit erary criticism is, thankfully, subject to intellectual and scholarly rigours unknown to Harper, whose genial approach arguably denied him access to the more profound and more subtle achieve ments of the poems. There are two very good reasons, however, why his essay should not be dismissed as oblique and self-centred-though it is both at the beginning. The first is that the style and structure of the essay implicitly evaluate the style and structure of the Con versation poems themselves by imitating them. Both the essay and the poems record the apparently casual rhythm of the mind, expanding and contracting, and yet both are organized in a far from casual way. Both are "so natural and real, and yet so dig- 1 Kelvin Everest in Coleridge's Secret Ministry: The Context of the Conversation Poems 1795-1798, Sussex 1979, p. -

Following the Prime Minister’s announcement of 23rd March, the Archbishops have written to clergy in support of the measures and again on 27 March, requiring that churches must now close both for private worship and public services. Our church buildings are therefore now closed for public worship, private prayer and all other meetings and activities until further notice. However, our online services are very active! You can access regular updates via the website: www.newboldparishchurch.org.uk Our Facebook page is updated daily: www.facebook.com/newboldparishchurch All of our videos of services, Bible readings, reflections and a song or two can be found on Youtube: Search - Newbold Parish Church channel As mentioned previously, if you, or someone you know, would like prayer at this time, please contact Revd Ben 450374, or Revd Rhoda 07838316610, or email us: [email protected] Dear all, It feels a lot longer than a month since I last wrote the Rector’s letter! This ‘lockdown’ appears to do strange things to time as well as to many other aspects of ‘normal’ life. Palm Sunday, Holy Week and Easter were particularly strange this year. It is the first time in living memory that the church has not been able to meet together at this most special time. I hope many of you were able to use the prayer resources, and palm cross, which we sent out prior to holy week. I put the 6’ cross we use for ‘Experience Easter’ up in the Rectory garden, by the boundary wall on Littlemoor, which I hope made a few people think. -
