Samuel Taylor Coleridge was a prominent English poet, literary critic, philosopher, and theologian who played a key role in the Romantic Movement. He was a co-founder of the Lake Poets alongside William Wordsworth and collaborated with other well-known writers. Coleridge’s notable works include poems such as The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Kubla Khan, as well as the prose piece Biographia Literaria. He is credited with coining several enduring phrases and introducing German idealist philosophy to English-speaking audiences. Coleridge’s critical writings, particularly on Shakespeare, were highly respected, and his influence extended to American transcendentalism.
