Coleridge and The Friend (1809-1810) (Oxford English Monographs) - Hardcover
Synopsis
In the past, critics of Coleridge's journal, The Friend, have referred to the much revised work of 1818. This is the first study of the early, unrevised journal. Coleman reconstructs the personal and intellectual background to Coleridge's project, focusing particularly on the circumstances surrounding its production, Coleridge's uneasy debut as a government apologist, and his debts to a tradition of English conservatism. Drawing on a number of unpublished manuscript sources, Coleman sheds light on a number of important tensions of the period, including those between religion and politics, idealism and pragmatism, and an author and his readers.

Review
"She adds crucially to our understanding of the psychological roots of Coleridge's divided allegiance to Kant, and has brilliant analyses of Coleridge's essentially conservative and hierarchical concept of the 'active' reader. This is a book for specialists, but for them it will be indispensable."--Virginia Quarterly Review
"An important contribution to one of the signal accomplishments of this book, its demonstration that The Friend intertwines philosophical with personal dilemmas at every point of the planning, thought, and composition."--Journal of English & Germanic Philology
"Much of Colemen's work will be of interest to period specialists, but even advanced undergraduates will find this study a worthwhile approach to the profundity of Coleridgean thought."--Choice
