Poems (Everyman's Library)

This selection contains all the poems from Coleridge's own collected edition of 1828, supplemented by many that appeared posthumously; it includes "Christabel," "From Stowey to Keswick," and "Dejection." All poems are based on close examination of the earliest editions, and include Coleridge's own illuminating emendments to his poetry. The text of "Kubla Khan" is taken from the Crew manuscript, and "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is printed as originally published in 1798.
