Description
Murray contends that cycles of catastrophe and catharsis are everywhere in the works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who viewed the hardships of his lifetime, like the catastrophes of Greek tragedy, as stages in a process of humanitys purification. Offering new readings of canonical poems, as well as neglected plays and critical works, Murray elaborates Coleridges tragic vision in relation to Romantic contemporaries and tragic theorists from Aristotle to Steiner.
