Episode 3: On Ghost ships, dice games, and the dangers of shooting an albatross
The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
By Samuel Taylor Coleridge
I absolutely love this poem! Please believe me when I tell you that in this video I only scratched the surface of this poem's story. I highly recommend picking up "The Annotated Ancient Mariner" with notes and introduction by Martin Gardner. For those who want to really dive into this poem (as well as 'Kubla Khan'), check out "The Road to Xanadu" by John Livingston Lowes.
