Introduction to Samuel Taylor Coleridge

It feels weird to be here 12 years later, hope whoever made this video is doing well as of today

great video. Coleridge was truly an amazing poet. he really manages to get across the feeling of being enveloped in a haze of opium. fever dreaming while you are awake. 'opium visions' i believe he called them.

Thank you, this is a really good talk on this.  I find the comparison of the two poets very enlightening! I just created an artistic recording based on a Coleridge poem but did not know this going in.

thank you so much for this video. it helps me a lot to understand the significant of Coleridge's use of metaphors and symbolism in the poems

Coleridge will be remembered for his imagination and view of things beyond our eyes. Wordsworth will be remembered for daffodils.

Well spoke, amazing video! Wish you did more poets

Nice video, thanks. I always thought Wordsworth was better than Coleridge. But truly, they don’t compare to their predecessors Marlowe, Jonson, and of course, Billy Shakes.

Excellent presentation, thankyou so much!

Possibly the most boring video I've ever seen. I had to watch this for an English assignment and fell asleep.
