Winner of the 1989 Whitbread Prize for Book of the Year, this is the first volume of Holmes\u2019s seminal two-part examination of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, one of Britain\u2019s greatest poets.\u2018Coleridge: Early Visions\u2019 is the first part of Holmes\u2019s classic biography of Coleridge that forever transformed our view of the poet of \u2018Kubla Khan\u2019 and his place in the Romantic Movement. Dismissed by much recent scholarship as an opium addict, plagiarist, political apostate and mystic charlatan, Richard Holmes\u2019s Coleridge leaps out of the page as a brilliant, animated and endlessly provoking figure who invades the imagination.This is an act of biographical recreation which brings back to life Coleridge\u2019s poetry and encyclopaedic thought, his creative energy and physical presence. He is vivid and unexpected.\n\nCOLERIDGE EARLY VISIONS PB\nEarly Visions\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail ;
