Coleridge's Aids to Reflection was written at a time when new
movements in thought were starting to unsettle belief. It was read
with admiration by early Victorians such as John Sterling, F. D.
Maurice, and Thomas Arnold, contributing to the formation of the
Broad Church Movement, and with respect by members of the High
Church Movement, including John Henry Newman. Coleridge had
intended simply to produce a selection from the writings of the
seventeenth-century Archbishop Robert Leighton with comments of his
own, but as he worked at the book he found the commentary expanding
to take in the fruits of his religious thinking over the years, so
that the second, and more important, part of the volume was totally
dominated by his thought. In this, the first major edition of Aids
to Reflection, the intricate story of Coleridge's changing
conception is unfolded by way of an introduction and detailed
notes, the surviving materials for the volume being printed in
appendixes. The introduction also traces the subsequent influence
of the work in England and America; further appendixes include
James Marsh's influential preface to the first American edition,
which is reproduced in full. Originally published in 1993. The
Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology
to again make available previously out-of-print books from the
distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These
editions preserve the original texts of these important books while
presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The
goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access
to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books
published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
