Long ago I A Richards remarked that if we are to understand the
Imagination, we have to understand how the brain works. Scientists
have begun to approach this deep and complex problem in ways that
we can not ignore. Coleridge's ideas on the subject belong to
another age, but he had the knack of raising questions and
performing thought experiments which are still relevant. This book
explores the questions and discoveries raised both by Coleridge and
by recent scientific research in order to offer fresh and original
approaches to the reading of poetry and in particular the reading
of Coleridge's major poems, The Ancyent Marinere, Kubla Khan and
Christabel. This book offers an interpretation of the role of
Imagination in the development of the human consciousness and the
vital role poetry plays in our engagement with the world.
