Thank you for this fascinating introduction. Coleridge is definitely my favorite romantic.

@seansmith9129 6 жыл бұрын

Coleridge was born in Ottery St Mary, where his Father was the Vicar not Nether Stowey. Though he did live for a period in Nether Stowey in later life.

i could imagine Samuel Thomas Coleridge speak in this very. accent. So, deliciously Victorian it sounds.

Please do more. I'm sorry that this is forward. I saw you in the Exodas series with Jordan Peterson and others. You are very smart, and I and I'm sure, many others would want to also learn from you. Please do not let your wisdom die with you. In great respect, Katelyn.

I grew up on the Romantics. They shaped my young adulthood and my ideology to this day. But do remember, none of them ever truly suffered for money. They had patrons. Many of them also had access to good drugs that are now illegal. No fault of theirs. It was a different time. Poets were like musicians and tv stars of our day. But try wandering around today spouting poetry, looking for someone to live off of, and doing a lot of drugs, and see how far that gets you. It was a brilliant time, that I wish still existed. They were highly educated, sensitive and troubled souls during a time of rapid change. Don't forget they came into fruition during the Napoleonic Era, something we could never even begin to imagine. And there were no tanks.

Nether Stowey is in Somerset, not Devon, and Coleridge lived there much later on in life, with his wife Sarah! He was born in Ottery St Mary, Devon, the youngest of 9... not including step-siblings.

Why only cite Wordsworth's disaffection over the Terror? Coleridge was the only one of the Romantic poets who wrote an open retraction of his previous support of the French Revolution.

For some reason I have a hard time with the idea that Lewis and Tolkien were "late Romantics." I don't believe the Fantasy genre is in the same literary space as Romantic fiction. Tolkien himself said what he was doing was called "sub-creation" -- the creation of a consistent imaginative world. I don't think the Romantics cared that much about consistency but were more in it for the feeling.

@keriford54 4 жыл бұрын

I regard them as Romantics. Neither saw their fantasy as escapism, but emphasised the truth of imagination, particularly Tolkien as did the Inkling theorist Owen Barfield. Both Lewis and Tolkien were deeply opposed to the disenchantment of the moderns, both saw a deep and true enchantment. They have strong mythic approach, Coleridge has this a little, but Keats and Shelley make more overt use of mythology. I also see George MacDonald as a link between the early Romantic and most obviously Lewis.

@gentillygirl545 3 жыл бұрын

I cannot see Lewis as a Romantic. Except, perhaps, for his later innocent acceptance of God and Nature as One. But that disregards all his previous Anglican, almost agnostic argument against the sacrosanct Catholic "trinity," which basically boils down to a humanistic disbelief in the literal Transubstantiation. Regarding Tolkein, I don't see it. Coleridge went into fantasy, but it was not a building block of how to build a civilization. And true Romantic writings seemed to have more of the Utopian view, and not constant dystopian struggling.

Don't deny it. The Romantics changed thought toward individual rights, the recognition of the significance of nature, subtle thinking, and the Rights of Man. It is well worth deep studying.
