This volume gathers a fascinating assortment of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s unpublished notes, assembled by his son Henry Nelson Coleridge. The pages are filled with the poet‑philosopher’s reflections on a wide range of theological and historical works—from Luther’s Table Talk and the life of St Theresa to debates over the Trinity and Christ’s divinity. Each entry offers a glimpse of Coleridge’s meticulous mind as he engages with the arguments of his contemporaries and predecessors.
Readers will find the material organized by the original sources, complete with chapter references and occasional marginal comments. The collection not only preserves Coleridge’s scholarly curiosity but also illuminates the intellectual climate of early‑19th‑century England. For anyone interested in the intersections of poetry, philosophy, and religious thought, these notes serve as a rare window into the formative ideas of one of literature’s most enigmatic figures.

1772–1834
A leading voice of English Romanticism, he wrote poetry that still feels dreamlike, haunted, and strangely modern. Best known for works such as The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan, he also helped reshape literary criticism and philosophical writing in Britain.
