Bücher von Joseph Cottle

""Reminiscences of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey"" is a book written by Joseph Cottle that documents his personal experiences and memories of the two famous poets. Cottle was a close friend of both Coleridge and Southey and spent a considerable amount of time with them during their literary careers. The book provides insight into the lives, personalities, and works of these two poets, as well as their relationships with each other and other notable figures of their time. Cottle's recollections cover a wide range of topics, from the poets' early years and education to their literary achievements and personal struggles. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the Romantic era, the lives of Coleridge and Southey, or the history of English literature.My dear Cottle, ... Public affairs are in strange confusion. I am afraid that I shall prove, at least, as good a Prophet as Bard. Oh, doom'd to fall, my country! enslaved and vile! But may God make me a foreboder of evils never to come! I have heard from Sheridan, desiring me to write a tragedy. I have no genius that way; Robert Southey has. I think highly of his 'Joan of Arc' and cannot help prophesying, that he will be known to posterity, as Shakspeare's great grandson. I think he will write a tragedy or tragedies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Published in 1847 by Joseph Cottle (1770-1853), this work recounts his relationship with Coleridge and Southey, whom he first met in 1794 as a successful bookseller in Bristol. Cottle went on to finance a number of the Romantic poets' publications, including Wordsworth and Coleridge's Lyrical Ballads (1798), which is seen as marking the start of Romanticism. A reworking of Cottle's controversial Early Recollections (1837), Reminiscences was criticised upon publication for being exaggerated and misleading, coloured by the breakdown of the author's friendship with the poets, as well as revealing information about disputes, moneylending and Coleridge's opium addiction. In spite of its shortcomings, the work gives a uniquely valuable insight into the lives and characters of the Romantic poets by a member of their inner circle. Cottle's memoir has much to reveal about the poets' private lives and artistic influences during a key moment in the Romantic period.

These 1837 reminiscences of Bristol bookseller Joseph Cottle (1770-1853), publisher of the Lyrical Ballads in 1798, have been described as 'unreliable but essential'. They contain evasions and distortions, but are valuable for their account of vital years in the lives of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Robert Southey and William Wordsworth.
