Coleridge and imagination
I think Coleridge's personal life, especially the tragic part, impacts his writing profoundly. Because of the tragic event happened later in Coleridge's life, he was able to write things different from that of others. I believe that when a person feel despair and depressed, he find ways to release his feelings and pressure. For Coleridge, writing was the way. Like Vincent van gough and Picasso, Coleridge was inspired and stimulated by his tragic experience. Also, he was able to see things from different perspectives. This allow him to write works that are innovative and imaginative to his audience. Even though the hardships Coleridge had gone through are crucial to him, they definitely helped to enhance his imagination.
