Illustrations from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
A major work of the English Romantic movement, «The Rime of the Ancient Mariner» by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, written in 1797–1798 and was published in 1798 and unique in its intentionally archaic language.
The poem is a nightmarish parody of a dream, fulfilling fears rather than wishes. Coleridge later attributed his masterpiece to opium dreams in order to make them seem more exotic to his readership. It begins with almost the sense of classical Greek tragedy, with a man who has offended against pagan forces condemned to wander the world and repeat his tale to passersby when the daemon within him moves him. The poem relates the events experienced by a mariner who has returned from a long sea voyage.
