En savoir plus sur le livre

The book explores Coleridge's later poetry, highlighting his struggle with language as a tool for expressing and shaping existence. Edward Kessler argues that the perceived incompleteness of these works is not a failure, but rather a conscious choice by Coleridge to reject restrictive forms. This provocative analysis presents a metaphysical dimension to Coleridge's poetry, suggesting that his fragments are intentional explorations rather than mere unfinished pieces.
