Question

Elucidate Coleridge's theory of poetry?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your Answer:-

Explanation:

Coleridge considers poetry as the fragrance of all human knowledge and thoughts. It is the scent of human passions, emotions and language. He thinks that no man was ever a great poet without being a profound philosophy. A great poet should attempt and achieve a union between the high finish and the appropriateness.

Answer 2

• According to Coleridge, the immediate purpose of poem is the communication of pleasure. But the immediate purpose of prose is the communication of truths. A poem must be an organic unity. It differs from a work of scientific prose in having its immediate object, pleasure, not truth.
