The Statesman’s Science: History, Nature, and Law in the Political Thought of Samuel Taylor Coleridge by Pamela Edwards
Requirements: ePUB or AZW3 Reader, 1.5MB
Overview: Author of “Kubla Khan” and the epic “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” Samuel Taylor Coleridge is remembered principally for his contributions as a romantic poet. This innovative reconsideration of Coleridge’s thought and career not only demonstrates his importance as a philosopher but also recovers romanticism as both an aesthetic and a political movement. Pamela Edwards radically departs from classic theories of Coleridge’s development and reads his writing within the framework of a constantly shifting political and social landscape.
Drawing on the ideology, rhetoric, and institutional theory at the turn of the late British Enlightenment, Edwards unearths the fundamental continuities in Coleridge’s writing during the revolutionary period of 1794 to 1834, paying particular attention to the rhetoric of Coleridge’s pamphlet and miscellaneous writings, the journalism of the Napoleonic years, his philosophical and ultimately political treatises within the contexts of his notebooks and letters, and his readings and intellectual friendships. What emerges is a clearer understanding of Coleridge’s political philosophy and his contributions to the origins and ideology of British Liberalism.
