Summary: | Of the writing of books on Samuel Taylor Coleridge there is, it seems, no end. Yet it is, perhaps, indicative of the importance of his voluminous writings as poet and thinker that the two more here reviewed, so very different from each other in style and scholarly approach, are to be welcomed.

Coleridge's position was one crucial to John Keble and the Tractarians and was later pursued by William Gladstone in his early major work The State in its Relation to the Church (1838). |
