    Samuel Coleridge

    Samuel Taylor Coleridge was an English poet and philosopher who, with fellow poet William Wordsworth, founded the Romantic Movement in England. In addition to penning the celebrated poems The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan, Coleridge was an influential scholar, whose work on William Shakespeare reintroduced the playwright’s work to contemporary writers. He is also credited with helping introduce German idealist philosophy to English-speakers. Coleridge’s poetical work would later influence Ralph Waldo Emerson and the American transcendentalist movement.

    • 3/5
      The music dominated rather than reinforced the poem. Over the top.
    • 1/5
      I can't believe I wasted my money on this. one of Burtons greatest, spoiled by an execrable soundtrack. what were you thinking?
    • 5/5
      an ambitious interpretation, with unexpected music to set a ruminative tone.
