Book Coleridge s Sublime Later Prose and Recent Theory

Download or read book Coleridge s Sublime Later Prose and Recent Theory written by Murray J. Evans and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Murray Evans's new book provides probing readings of the role of the sublime in Coleridge's later work, including Aids to Reflection and On the Constitution of the Church and State. Evans shows how sublime instability, boundary-crossing, and excess can be found even in works that appear to defend religious and literary orthodoxies. Still further, he illuminates, and expands the relevance of, these readings by adventurous forays into major theoretical writing from the past few decades. This is a bold and stimulating contribution to scholarship on Romanticism." -Mark Canuel, Professor of English and Director of the Institute for the Humanities at the University of Illinois at Chicago This book explores the sublime in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's later major prose in relation to more recent theories of the sublime. Building on the author's previous monograph Sublime Coleridge: The Opus Maximum, this study focuses on sublime theory and discourse in Coleridge's other major prose texts of the 1820s: Confessions of an Inquiring Spirit (wr. 1824), Aids to Reflection (1825), and On the Constitution of the Church and State (1829). This book thus ponders the constellations of aesthetics, literature, religion, and politics in the sublime theory and practice of this central Romantic author and three of his important successors: Julia Kristeva, Theodor Adorno, and Jacques Rancière. Murray J. Evans is Professor Emeritus of English at the University of Winnipeg and Retired Fellow at St John's College, University of Manitoba, Canada. He has taught medieval literature and medievalism, Coleridge, children's literature, "Inklings" C.S. Lewis et al., literary history, and literary theory. He is the author of Rereading Middle English Romance (1995) and Sublime Coleridge: The Opus Maximum (Palgrave, 2012) and has also published essays on Malory and the Malory manuscript, Chaucer, Piers Plowman, Coleridge, and C.S. Lewis.

Book Exploring Sublime Rhetoric in Biblical Literature

Download or read book Exploring Sublime Rhetoric in Biblical Literature written by Roy R. Jeal and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2024-03-22 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In scholarly study of the New Testament and early Christian rhetoric, one key element is often overlooked: the sublime. To address this omission, contributors to this volume explore how the awe-inspiring, dislocating, and sometimes horrifying language that characterizes sublime rhetoric exerts cognitive, emotional, and physiological force on its audiences, transporting them to new realities as they go along. The essays lay a foundation for scholars and students to identify and interpret sublime rhetoric in biblical literature. Contributors include Murray J. Evans, Alan P. R. Gregory, Christopher T. Holmes, Roy R. Jeal, Harry O. Maier, Erika Mae Olbricht, Thomas H. Olbricht†, Vernon K. Robbins, and Jonathan Thiessen.

Book Coleridge and Textual Instability

Download or read book Coleridge and Textual Instability written by Jack Stillinger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994-05-12 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jack Stillinger establishes and documents the existence of numerous different authoritative versions of Coleridge's best-known poems: sixteen or more of The Eolian Harp, for example, eighteen of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, and comparable numbers for This Lime-Tree Bower, Frost at Midnight, Kubla Khan, Christabel, and Dejection: An Ode. Such multiplicity of versions raises interesting theoretical and practical questions about the constitution of the Coleridge canon, the ontological identity of any specific work in the canon, the editorial treatment of Coleridge's works, and the ways in which multiple versions complicate interpretation of the poems as a unified (or, as the case may be, disunified) body of work. Providing much new information about the texts and production of Coleridge's major poems, Stillinger's study offers intriguing new theories about the nature of authorship and the constitution of literary works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) was the master impresario of English Romanticism -- an enormously erudite and tireless critic, lecturer, and polemicist who almost single-handedly created the intellectual climate in which the Romantic movement was received and understood. He was also, in poems such as 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,' 'Christabel,' and 'Kubla Khan.' the most uncanny, surreal, and startling of the great English poets.

Book Coleridge  Schiller and Aesthetic Education

Download or read book Coleridge Schiller and Aesthetic Education written by M. Kooy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-02-07 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book of its kind to consider at length Coleridge's relationship to his near contemporary, Friedrich Schiller. Contrary to received opinion, the author shows that Schiller's notion of 'aesthetic education' was indeed valuable to Coleridge at an early stage in his career and that it helped to shape much of his work - from his theory of imagination and his notion of the clerisy to his views on women and his account of historical change. Combining close readings with historical research, this book challenges readers to rethink the radical potential of idealist aesthetics.

The great flowering of his poetry happened all, in the single year from the summer of 1797 when he first became friends with Dorothy and William Wordsworth. That was the year in which he wrote The Ancient Mariner, the first part of Christable, Kubla Khan and other poems that were, as Kathleen Raine writes, "the works not of his talent but of his genius".As well as Coleridge's finest poems, this Penguin edition contains selections from his letters and his main critical writings, including extracts from Biographia Literaria and several of his revolutionary essays on Shakespeare.

Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "The Complete Prose Works: Literary Essays, Lectures and Letters (Unabridged Illustrated Edition)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) was an English poet, literary critic and philosopher who, with his friend William Wordsworth, was a founder of the Romantic Movement in England and a member of the Lake Poets. He wrote the poems The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan, as well as the major prose work Biographia Literaria. His critical work, especially on Shakespeare, was highly influential, and he helped introduce German idealist philosophy to English-speaking culture. He coined many familiar words and phrases, including suspension of disbelief. He was a major influence on Emerson, and American transcendentalism. Coleridge is one of the most important figures in English poetry. His poems directly and deeply influenced all the major poets of the age. He was known by his contemporaries as a meticulous craftsman who was more rigorous in his careful reworking of his poems than any other poet, and Southey and Wordsworth were dependent on his professional advice.

Book Coleridge and the Armoury of the Human Mind

Download or read book Coleridge and the Armoury of the Human Mind written by Peter J. Kitson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1991, this book collects a broad array of path-finding scholarship by specialists in Coleridge and Romantic literature on the subject of his prose. They range from broad appraisals of Coleridge’s own critical practises; demonstrations of the fecundity of his autobiography, the Biographia Literaria, for contemporaries; the effect of Milton and the radical polemicists of the English Civil War on Coleridge’s early political and religious dissent; and the influence of the Hebrew prophetic tradition in his move away from the conjectural millenarianism of his youth towards the interpretation of Prophecy and a symbolic narrative.

Book Coleridge s Later Poetry

Download or read book Coleridge s Later Poetry written by Morton D. Paley and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems that Coleridge wrote after his 'golden' period are seldom studied or anthologized. Yet, among the poems written after his most famous works are many of quality and interest, addressing such universal themes as the nature of the self and the experience of unfulfilled love. Paley examines the later verse in the context of Coleridge's oeuvre, discusses what characterizes it, and looks at why the poet felt he had to develop distinctively different modes of writing for these works. 'To William Wordsworth' is presented as a transitional poem, exhibiting the vatic quality of earlier poems even while declaring that this quality must be abandoned. Morton D. Paley then explores the poetry of the abyss (which he terms 'The Limbo Constellation'), and this is followed by poems on the theme of the self and of love. The last chapter examines the role of epitaphs in the later works, culminating in a study of the epitaph that Coleridge wrote for himself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new volume demonstrates the extent and diversity of Coleridge's writings on the sublime. It highlights the development of his aesthetic of transcendence from an initial emphasis on the infinite progressiveness of humanity, through a fascination with landscape as half-revealing the infinite forces underlying it, and with literature as producing a similar feeling of the inexpressible, to an increasing emphasis on contemplating the ineffable nature of God, as well as the transcendent power of Reason or spiritual insight.
