Description and Table of Contents
Description
Hollywood actor Michael Sheen reads one of the most famous poems in the English language, "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner", in this collection, which is part of the Naxos AudioBooks "The Great Poets" series. Radical and daring, Coleridge worked with Wordsworth to transform poetry and bring it closer to the people. Original, atmospheric and pensive, the power of Coleridge's plain-spoken poetry inspired the tradition of Romantic poetry that sprung up in his wake. This popular anthology also contains Coleridge's other major narrative poem "Christabel", as well as "Kubla Khan", "Love", "Frost at Midnight" and "The Lime-Tree Bower My Prison".
