In lieu of this, The Fall of Robespierre, which had never as yet been reprinted in England, is introduced." The "Preface to Miscellaneous Works," signed Southward.T.C. [sic] (pp xxix-xxxii) is followed by editor'southward annotation giving sources of these "prefaces" in various editions of C's works. The 91 poems include both the subsequently and the original version of The RAM with notes on the latter.

[Due south I 188?] (Cf C488) ROSSETTI, Westward[illiam] Yard[ichael], ed. The Poetical Works of S. T. Coleridge. With biographical sketch past W Thousand Rossetti. NY: A Fifty Burt, Pubr (nd, but 188?). i, i-xxiii, 609 pp. Forepart (port). No index.

• Rossetti'due south substantial disquisitional memoir (and so titled in the edition of 1871--C488, here inadequately titled "Biographical Sketch," pp v-xx), offers a sympathetic, anecdotal business relationship of C's childhood, youth, early on literary tendencies, and friendships with Southey and Westward. He shows less sympathy for the adult C's management of his life. "There are ample evidences in his writings of deep-seated dissatisfaction with himself, and with the insufficiently slight lifelong results of his spacious, first-class, and diverse intellect. Non indeed that the bulk of his published writings is, properly speaking, insignificant, nor their fabric flimsy: but he was sadly conscious of projects lapsed, energies waning, and opportunities lost, never to recur."
• As for C'due south poetry, "his nearly important and famous works appear to me to suffer from a desire of central good sense . . . [despite] their exalted beauties of execution . . . . That tenuity of mental substance should be the defect of works produced by then rich a mind as C's may appear unlikely or strange: peradventure tenuity of character, a want of grasp of realities in life as realities, is the true hush-hush." From this signal of view, Rossetti faults fifty-fifty The RAM, KK, Christabel, and The Three Graves.
• Of C'southward alterations in political and religious views, Rossetti writes: "The pantisocrat adult into a Tory. It would exist as needless and unfair, at this distance of fourth dimension, to denounce C as a turncoat, or accredit his altered Tone of mind to any moral obliquity; he never fabricated Toryism pay to an extent worth mentioning, as did Southey . . . . This change of political opinion in C was gradually, though more than slowly, accompanied by a similar modify of religious opinion. . . . [Ultimately, becoming a Trinitarian, and] without setting himself to speak in an uncharitable spirit of his opponents, C ceased to regard as any genuine Christianity at all that form of Christianity which is without belief in Christ equally God. Information technology is not altogether easy--not at whatsoever rate for those who approach the subject field without holding the touchstone of the like class of organized religion--to enter into the workings of C'south mind on this field of study. . . . The most obvious result of C's Trinitarian conversion is a flood of eloquence and verbiage about 'the Logos;' and perhaps its most persistently operative effect upon the reader is to make him glance rapidly over the page of prose to see whether that word appears upon it, and to turn the leaf decisively when he perceives that information technology does."
• C'due south "Preface"[s] (xxi-xxiii) precede 129 poems (pp one-185), including 41 "Early Poems--1803" [p 1-]; 22 "Sonnets" [58-]; The RAM; Christabel; "Sibylline Leaves": 4 "Poems Occasioned by Political Events" [97-], xviii "Love Poems" [111-], 10 "Meditative Poems" [131-], 16 "Odes and Miscellaneous Poems" [152-], sixteen "Prose in Rhyme: Or, Epigrams, Moralities, and Things without a Proper name" [170-]. The dramas: Zapolya (186-265); Remorse (266-334); The Autumn of Robespierre (335-58); and Piccolomini and The Death of Wallenstein (359-609). The frontispiece plate is the 1818 Phillips portrait, coarsely engraved or poorly printed. National Union Catalog, Pre-1956, NC0533621, lists an identically paged upshot as in "The Home Library" series, which NUC Pre56 NH0486392 (in book 253) dates as beginning in 1881.

(Gage & Co'southward English School Classics) Toronto: W J Gage & Co (1885). iv, 5-238 pp. 162 x 110mm. As well 3d edn (1885). Preface (pp iii-iv):

• "In the [all-encompassing] notes appended to C's poems, the analyst has had in view only the poems themselves, for he considers that the aim of the study of literature will be missed if extraneous thing is introduced any farther than is absolutely required for the total understanding of the work in hand. The introductory remarks [heading the poems] are dissimilar in character from the explanatory notes, and arise from a study of the poem as a whole; they should be taken upwardly only after the poem has been gone over advisedly. "Some critical remarks have been added along with a sketch of the author'southward life; but the best criticism will be found in a written report of the author's works. A sketch of literary history is inserted, not because the annotator thinks such history is of value in didactics, simply because the departmental examinations seem to require it. Such a study is almost worthless when unaccompanied with a personal knowledge of the works of the authors referred to." "Introduction" begins with headnote of pedagogical advice (p 5); and then "I.--Life of C" (pp v-8), "Primary Works" (pp 8-12), "II.--The Eighteenth Century" (pp 12-18). No table of contents, but prints The RAM, Ode to the Parting Year, French republic, Dejection, To WW, and Youth and Age (pp 19-82).

• C's proper name rarely appears in Whitman's utterances. Just as he lay on his sick bed a year earlier his death, during what I would telephone call his Sick-Bed Talk (in contrast to C's Table Talk), he voiced his distaste for what he chosen "glitter" in literature and asserted its absenteeism in Leaves of Grass. And so he said: "I think that C was the get-go man to give 'Imagination' an efficient application the new fashion. I have no objection to the word--on the reverse I similar it--information technology attracts me, is grand, clusters a globe of meanings." (In 8, 43, recorded 27 F 1891.) All the same, Whitman preferred to utilise the word "fancy" to designate the shaping power of his imagination.

• The introduction past Gail Harvey, dated 1994, synopsizes the poem and praises it and the illustrations by "award-winning artist" Pogany, "who was influenced by the decorative, exotic styles of Fine art Deco, and Oriental and Hungarian peasant art." Here are some comparisons of this Gramercy edition (Thousand) with the 1910 Harrap edition (H) (above). The trunk of the pages in G is reduced 20% from the size in H. Thou shortens the book to sixty leaves from the 92 in H. In H, all text is printed from hand-lettered originals, with elaborate underlying designs in color. In M, all text is typeset in a small Roman font, only occasionally above a small vignette in black or a small blueprint in the ane other color, a grayish-blue. In H, the glosses are printed with the corresponding stanzas, but in G all glosses for a Office are printed together on the leaf post-obit the Part headpiece.
• Reduction in length is likewise accomplished by omission of illustrations. One thousand includes 19 of H'due south 20 4-color plates (repeating one on the front comprehend) and all the headpieces to the 7 Parts. In addition, whereas H has 61 full- or part-page vignettes, each main vignette supported past an elaborate secondary design in color, G uses only 21 of these principal vignettes and without the supporting designs. In H, the four-color illustrations are mounted on the pages; G prints them on the pages, in the aforementioned colors equally in H. Of the other colors in H, K reproduces simply those on the half-title page, title folio, and page with the excerpt from a WW verse form. G uses some of the 29 folio-border designs in H but puts them around different fabric; G prints them in a lite grayish blueish, whereas H prints them in black or yellow-green or mauve-beige.

D. Watson" [click here to run across the 3rd image enlarged].
• Photographs (11 10 17 inches) a gift to the CCC from Stephen H Ford.
• Extracts from C1796, the long note of the original edition:
• The revelation in this book "is the fruit of a sincere and sacred effort made by a group of living souls on the Twentieth Astral Plane, to bring calorie-free and comfort to those especially who have asked the question: 'What ensues later on expiry?'"
• "The Twentieth Plane is the domicile of great thinkers and lovers who are not interested in the old garments of religion, merely in truth and life which are its very fibre." The earth is the 5th plane; the 20th is almost 500 miles from the earth. One of the illuminati on the 20th says, "There is no end of progress, merely we cannot embrace beyond the 1000th."
• The communications recorded in this volume began on xx Ja 1918 and occurred on 52 days, 45 of them to 6 Jy 1918 and vii thereafter to fourteen Ja 1919, all in Toronto. The communications were generally in answers to questions, mostly from "reporter" Watson, mediated by the "Instrument" on the ouija board, by automatic writing, or in trance accost.
• The direct communicators number 53, of whom C is the most frequent after Watson's mother and DW.
• Watson says that when subtle questions were asked, the illuminati referred them to specialists, "then when I asked for definitions of terms in psychology C was the one who answered me." When Watson says, "C is great," his mother responds, "We call him here, 'the brilliant mind.' Once nosotros saw flames belch from his eyes," indicating "that he was a volcano of truth."
• C discusses at some length life on the 20th Plane, including their dietary (distinguished from that of earth by vibrations), their sixth sense ("sensitive to the odours of all things, even thought"), their manner of travel (in the torso simply usually by thought projection), their way of finding 1 another (by mental telegraphy and astral instruments), and the law of vibration. 1 of their nigh important avocations, he says, is "to exist the ego to enter into the consciousness" of, and to be "vehicles of the wider low-cal of knowledge to, the greater souls" on earth (geniuses are reincarnations from higher planes). After C and Due west soapbox on love, C discourses on the difference between human and adult female: human being a cruder car, woman a finer with "closer‑meshed channels of expression. At present, if the soul, which is sexless, desires to limited itself in more than bold and massive thought‑action," that soul may be reincarnated in the body of a human being. This happens rarely, simply C names ten women on the earth airplane who were formerly men, including Dante'due south Beatrice, Joan of Arc, and DW, who was once the Black Prince and who will exist reincarnated over again.
• C delivers a meaty message on sculpture, x aphorisms on "Life Principles," and outlines the curriculum the illuminati report: "Political Wisdom, Fine art, Music, Literature, Eugenics ["the posthumous attribute .... which develops after the ego reaches the mature part of its climb"], Aura History, Sex relationship, Discordant elements in homo nature."
• About important are C'southward metaphysical discourses in the chapters "The Quest for Reality" and "Realization of God." Most of the questions on these subjects are directed past Dr A H Abbott, Acquaintance Professor of Philosophy, U of Toronto. C explains at length the metaphysics underlying the principle that the Universe is God, divided into three strata, "the passive, latent physical globe; the corking area of imagination; and at the apex, the serene, rare, pure inspirational center of God‑intelligence." C'due south definition, "God is the totality of all experience, thought, knowledge, and substance or essence, which is all there is or e'er volition be," Abbott says is like to Spinoza'south.

• This volume is "simply an account [drawn from the author'southward retention and his journal] of a voyage in a whaling-ship of the old school, under weather which were a decided improvement upon the general conditions prevailing[,] under the leadership of a man who may be recognised past some of his surviving friends and acquaintances, just whose name I withhold" (p 12, Author's Introduction, signed from Auckland, New Zealand). Author (chosen "Mr Hedger" throughout this get-go-person account) is much influenced by C'south Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
• Mr Hedger joins first officer Mr Haskell and 2nd officeholder Mr Richester in the officers' saloon for lunch: "They were a foreign pair--the venerable ancient mariner and the second officeholder" (p 28).
• Author vividly describes, and discusses, the different kinds of albatross they saw in the Due south Atlantic (p 43); adapts The RAM 615: "all things peachy and small."
• The transport took much the same course as the AM's ship, passing through the Straits of Magellan, subject to fog, stupendous seas, and gales (p 98).
• Chapter 29, "Death," tells of their experience in the North Pacific when the transport was defenseless in 26 days of calm, the men sick and suffering. [Cf The RAM 107-70.] "Whenever opportunity offered, the men leaned over the rails, staring into the depths until their minds seemed to be filled with horror, and i by ane they would turn abroad and quietly vanish frontwards as though afraid of what they saw" (p 250). "One 60 minutes after midnight, Captain Lombard passed away" (p 251). "As if to confirm the superstitions of the men who firmly believed that the sacrifice of a human being life is necessary to pause long periods of calm, a lite breeze came dancing across the glassy waters with the coming of dawn" (p 252). And so Mr Haskell "assumed the mail of Captain, and I was duly appointed chief mate" (p 253).
• In affiliate thirty, "The Lay of the Ancient Mariner," the ship reached Honolulu [first glimpses of the shore somewhat echo those in The RAM] and proceeded to San Francisco (pp 254ff). Helm Haskell tells Mr Hedger that "'only a few years agone a big square-rigged transport was found, with all canvas standing and at the mercy of the wind, without a guiding mitt. [Cf the spectre bark, The RAM 171-84.] Upon closer examination it was discovered that every human being on lath was expressionless, and that at that place was no sign of violence or sickness" (p 258). [Cf the dead crew on the AM's send, The RAM sixteen-37.]
• Looking dorsum on the unusually long period of calm, Mr Hedger says: "All around the ship lay a swarm of ugly living creatures which grew in strength and number as the calm weather became prolonged. [They saw a "faint phosphorescent light" (cf The RAM 127-xxx; cf too The RAM 123-5, and the whole passage nearly the dead crew and the "yard m slimy things" which then the AM saw as cute: The RAM 236-83).] These creatures resembled zip that I had previously seen, and Peter Haskell suggested that they represented the first forms of life that appeared on this planet, substantiating the theory of the evolution exponents.
• "And so interested was I that I drew a bucket of water from overside, and poured information technology on to the after hatchway, that nether the microscopic lens produced past [medical officer] Kong, who also was interested, I might examine the creatures with greater ease. Gauge my astonishment when I discovered their invisibility. Let me explain that all the time these creatures were in their native chemical element--the sea-h2o--ane could seem them wriggling and sprawling near devouring one another in one gluttonous gobble; but as soon as they were put on to a foreign substance they disappeared, although they could exist discerned by the touch of the easily owing to the gelled nature of their construction. Viewed under a lens in a send's bucket, they seemed to possess, or reflect, every shade of color ever imagined by man." [Cf The RAM 272-81.]
• "Peter Haskell, continuing beside me, repeated part of Coleridge's 'Aboriginal Mariner', which surely must apply to these things: [quotes The RAM 277-85]" (p 260). The story ends on the next folio with farther contemplation of these creatures of the deep.

Fifty: Hamish Hamilton, 1931. xii, 344 pp. Il (plates). Other printings of this work, with the main title Life Was Worth Living, annotated in C3565 (1931), indicate that the pretty grandmamma get-go encountered Coleridge when she was a girl in Highgate in 1819.

• His maternal great-grandmother, Mrs Walford, "disliked me extremely and never addressed me if she could possibly assist it. Had she known how securely I admired her she would take held a better stance of me." One time when her "pretty daughter," his "pretty grandmamma," was being instructed by her formidable parent in domestic duties devolving upon a Young Gentlewoman, she inaugurated her career as housekeeper by taking the keys out on the Common and losing them. // Wildly she searched hither and thither," finally sitting down hopelessly on the grass and crying. // >Why are you weeping, my beloved?' suddenly said an elderly gentleman, for all the globe like a Fairy Godmother." They searched the Heath together, till sunset. "I must tell her tonight,' wailed grandmamma. // 'Not to-dark,' said the old admirer--to postpone the unpleasant was characteristic of him. 'To-morrow volition come up quite soon enough. And who knows--?' // But grandmamma was past comfort and ran miserably abode through the twilight. // Early next morn she received a small packet 'With Mr. S. T. Coleridge's compliments.' Those keys! The thrice-blest old admirer had been up half the night searching the Common with a lantern, and had at last achieved success. // Mr. Coleridge was not equally a rule energetic--grandmamma must have been very pretty. // After a few more meetings he undertook to 'direct her reading,' only this post must have been more or less of a sinecure, for I fancy that pretty grandmamma did not read much. I possess a volume of Sybilline Leaves, containing an early and after revised version of 'The Ancient Mariner,' in which the writer 'with best Wishes, cheerful Hopes, and most friendly recollections' begs Miss Walford to 'be so skillful as to correct this work from the Errata, at page x (the leaf before 'The Ancient Mariner') before reading any of the poems, and to insert the passages added or substituted.' Not a single word has Miss Walford corrected, added or substituted, so, equally I am sure she was a sweetly obedient creature, we may conclude that she never read the book. // My only grudge against grandmamma is that on one occasion Coleridge at great length told her of a new idea for the end of 'Christabel'--and she straightway forgot all about information technology. I exercise not want an end to 'Christabel'; I am certain that Coleridge himself could not accept ended it without spoiling it; but I practise wish that grandmamma had remembered. // Why did he non confide it to great-grandmother instead? She would probably accept told him that information technology was stuff and nonsense, but she would not have forgotten. And she must have been equally as pretty as grandmamma." Reminiscence continues with about of a page about portraits of grandmamma: "Grandmamma's prettiness still lingers on many canvases past Andrew Geddes, a Scotch painter of great talent," from her childhood to her mature years as Mrs. Jeremiah Greatorex [plate facing page six]. . . . When did she notice fourth dimension and opportunity to sit for these surreptitious and surprising portraits? Grandmamma must take been cleverer than her family fancied" (pp 3-vii).
• Run into C9222 (1826): "On 8 F 1826 C wrote his nephew Edward C that he planned . . . to accommodate sittings for a portrait past Geddes; but no such portrait has come to calorie-free (CL, Half dozen, 561)."
