Samuel Taylor Coleridge 1. Life Born in London in 1795. Well educated at a school in Enfield. Early passion for reading poetry. Family plagued by death. Doomed love story with Fanny Brawne owing to his poverty and bad health Own illness tubercolisis. Died in 1821 in Rome. A portrait of John Keats, 1817 Performer - Culture & Literature

Samuel Taylor Coleridge 2. Main works 1918 Endymion, a long, mythological poem The Eve of St Agnes, characterised by romantic features. La Belle Dame Sans Merci, a ballad which displayed a taste for medieval themes and form. The great Odes. Hyperion, begun in 1818 and published in 1820. 1920 Performer - Culture & Literature

Samuel Taylor Coleridge 3. His poetry His lyrical poems are not fragments of a spiritual autobiography, like the lyrics of Shelley and Byron. A personal experience is behind the odes of 1818 it is not their substance. The pronoun ‘I’ stands for a universal human being. The common Romantic tendency to identify scenes and landscapes with subjective moods and emotions is rarely present in his poetry. Performer - Culture & Literature

Samuel Taylor Coleridge 4. Keats and imagination Keats’s belief in the supreme value of imagination made him a Romantic poet. His imagination takes two main forms: the world of his poetry imagined, artificial; his poetry comes from imagination his work is a vision of what he would like human life to be like. Performer - Culture & Literature

Samuel Taylor Coleridge 5. Keats’s beauty Beauty strikes his imagination. is perceived by the senses; all the senses are involved in this process. This ‘physical beauty’ is caught in all the forms nature acquires. Physical beauty can also produce a much deeper experience of joy, which introduces a sort of ‘spiritual beauty’, that is the one of love, friendship, poetry. These two kinds of beauty are closely interwoven, since the former, linked to life, enjoyment, decay and death, is the expression of the latter, related to eternity. Performer - Culture & Literature

Samuel Taylor Coleridge 6. The poet’s task The poet has what he called ‘negative capability’: refers to the capability the poet has to deny his certainties and personality in order to identify himself with the object of his inspiration. When the poet can rely on this negative capability, he is able to seek sensation, which is the basis of knowledge since it leads to beauty and truth, and allows him to render it through poetry. A new view of the poet’s task. Performer - Culture & Literature

7. Imagery in Keats Synaesthetic: fusion of visual and tactile senses. Pictorial Compressed Concrete Synaesthetic: fusion of visual and tactile senses. Concrete: tangible material forms. Pictorial: visual often personified. Compressed: condensed images to highlight intensity. Performer - Culture & Literature
