Question

Justify the title "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner".

Answer 1

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 'The rime of the ancient mariner' deals with the story of a mariner who did something terrible and was destined to atone for it throughout the rest of his life.

The mariner stops a wedding guest who is on his way to his wedding and proceeds to tell his story in spite of the protests of the wedding guest. The intense eyes of the mariner holds him captive and in spite of himself, the wedding guest is forced to listen to the eventful story of the mariner's sailing adventure.

Killing of a harmless albatross by the mariner had brought immense tragedy to the ship and its crew. But the sinner himself was spared and was cursed to live on with unbearable guilt. He goes around telling the story of his despicable deed.

So the poem is aptly titled as it deals with the poignant story of the old mariner.
