Coleridge and German Philosophy: The Poet in the Land of Logic by Paul Hamilton
Requirements: ePUB, MOBI or AZW3 Reader, 1.2MB
Overview: Samuel Taylor Coleridge frequently bridged the gap between British and European Romantic thought. This study sets Coleridge’s mode of thinking within a German Romantic philosophical context as the place where his ideas can naturally extend themselves, stretch and find speculations of comparable ambition. It argues that Coleridge found his philosophical adventures in the dominant idiom of his times exciting and as imaginatively engaging as poetry.
Paul Hamilton situates major themes in Coleridge’s prose and poetic writings in relation to his passion for German philosophy. He argues that Coleridge’s infectious attachment to German (post-Kantian) philosophy was due to its symmetries with the structure of his Christian belief. Coleridge is read as an excited and winning expositor of this philosophy’s power to articulate an absolute grounding of reality. Its comprehensiveness, however, rendered redundant further theological description, undermining the faith it had seemed to support.
