Meeting Coleridge was one of the Romantic age’s most memorable experiences, and many of his contemporaries left vivid records Wordsworth, Lamb, Hazlitt, Keats, Emerson and many others, often now forgotten. This book is a comprehensive, fully annotated collection of such reminiscences. Drawing on an eclectic range of materials (including private journals, letters, poems, and comic portraits), and printing many texts otherwise difficult to access, it should be a valuable resource for students of romanticism, as well as of interest to Coleridge’s admirers.
