The poems that Coleridge wrote after his golden period are seldom
studied or anthologized. Yet among the poems written after his most
famous works are many of quality and interest, addressing such
universal themes as the nature of the self and the experience of
unfulfilled love. Paley examines the later verse in the context of
Coleridge's oeuvre, discusses what characterizes it, and looks at
why the poet felt he had to develop distinctively different modes
of writing for these works. To William Wordsworth is presented as a
transitional poem, exhibiting the vatic quality of earlier poems
even while declaring that this quality must be abandoned. Morton D.
Paley then explores the poetry of the abyss (which he terms The
Limbo Constellation), and this is followed by poems on the theme of
the self and of love. The last chapter examines the role of
epitaphs in the later works, culminating in a study of the epitaph
which Coleridge wrote for himself.
