Eminye yemisebenzi yakhe eyaziwa kakhulu yilena Kubla khan futhi i I-Ballad ye-Old Sailor. Kodwa zazikhona nezinye izinkondlo eziningi. Namuhla ngihlenga ezi-3 zazo ukuzikhumbula.
USamuel Taylor Coleridge
UColeridge wayene- imfundo yamabanga aphansi eqinile esikoleni okuhlalwa kuso waseLondon futhi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi wayofunda e- I-University of Cambridge. Wayengeyena umfundi omuhle, kodwa wayehlotshaniswa nezimbongi ezibalulekile ezazivela kuye ubungani izincwadi zakhe zokuqala ezavela: Ukuwa kweRobespierre y Izinkondlo ezahlukahlukene.
Ngo-1798, kanye nembongi enkulu UWilliam Wordsworth, waba neqhaza ekuguqukeni kwenkathi yamaRoma ezincwadini zesiNgisi nge ukushicilelwa ngokuhlanganyela kwe Ama-ballads ama-Lyrical, umsebenzi ophawule i- ukuqala kwenkathi yothando lwesiNgisi. Encwadini yakhe siqu uthando olungafuneki nguDorothy Wordsworth, udadewabo womngani wakhe, ubelokhu emmaka embonweni wakhe wothando.
Enye yezintshisekelo zakhe kwaba Ifilosofi futhi, ukhangwe yisibalo se KantWaya eGermany lapho afike wajulisa khona ulwazi lwakhe. Wayesehlala nase- Italia okwesikhashana. Izinkinga eziningi zomuntu siqu, kubandakanya umshado nezifo ezifana ukukhathazeka nokudangala, okwaholela ekubeni abe umlutha we-opium ne-laudanum, babemthatha bemsusa emndenini wakhe. Ugcine ngokukhosela endlini yomngani wakhe lapho abhale khona eminye imisebenzi efana Umbhalo wezincwadi o USibylline ushiya. Ushone eLondon ngoJulayi 1834.
Ngokuvamile, noma kunjalo, umsebenzi kaColeridge kusibuyisela emuva ngesikhathi, kusenza sihambele esikhathini esedlule esingaqinisekile, futhi ngokuvamile esingenangqondo, okungenye yezimpawu eziyinhloko ze-Romanticism njengenhlangano yezincwadi. Futhi ngikwazile hlanganisa leyo filosofi yothando namanye ama-nuances womuntu nokuhlambalaza.
Izinkondlo eziyi-3
Ukuphelelwa yithemba
Okubi kakhulu umhlaba ongakwenza

Enhliziyweni yami intshisekelo yokuphila,
Ukuchithwa futhi kude namathemba ami,
Akukho okusele manje. Kungani uhlala lapho?
Lokho kuthunjwa, ukuthi umhlaba ubambekile
Ukunikeza isithembiso sokuthi ngisaphila

Ngothando lwakhe olunganyakazi, owayebungaza ukuthula kwakhe kimi

Isithwathwa phakathi kwamabili
Isithwathwa sigcwalisa ihhovisi laso eliyimfihlo
ngaphandle kosizo lomoya. Isikhova siyaginqika
ukukhala kwayo ebusuku - lalela - kukhulu.
Wonke umuntu uphumule futhi ngiyazinikela kulokho
isizungu esikhuthaza i-delirium.
Useceleni kwami kuphela, embhedeni wakhe,
ukulala okuphumuzayo kwendodana yami.
Kuthule du! Kangangokuthi zixukuza
umcabango oweqile futhi ongavamile
Thula. Ulwandle, igquma nehlathi,
eduze kwaleli dolobha! Ulwandle, igquma nehlathi
ngenqubo yempilo yansuku zonke,
ayizwakali njengamaphupho! Ilangabi eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka
namanje ekhaya, akasathuthumela;
kuphela leyo tape ephazamisa ukuzola,
kusakhanya ocingweni.
Ukuzulazula kwakho ekuthuleni kwalesi senzakalo
kunikeza ukufana nempilo yami,
uthatha ifomu elinobungani elingu-
ilangabi elincane liyenza ithoyizi
yomcabango futhi iyahunyushwa
ngendlela yayo ngomphefumulo, ofuna
kukho konke isibuko uqobo lwaso.

Ubukhona bothando
Futhi emahoreni anomsindo kakhulu,
Kukhona ukuhleba okungapheli: Ngiyakuthanda;
Induduzo yodwa kanye nokukhuluma yedwa kwenhliziyo.
Ubumba ithemba lami, wembethe kimi;
Ukuhola konke ukushaya kwami, kugeleza ebuhlungwini bami.
Ulele emicabangweni yami eminingi, njengokukhanya,
Njengokukhanya okumnandi kokuhwalala
Noma ukulindelwa kokuphuka kwehlobo emfuleni,
Amafu abonakala echibini.
Futhi ubheka phezulu esibhakabhakeni esikuphezu kwakho,
Imvamisa, ngiyambusisa unkulunkulu ongenze ngakuthanda kanjena.
