Coleridge's laws a study of Coleridge in Malta / [electronic resource] : Barry Hough and Howard Davis ; with an introduction by Michael John Kooy ; translations by Lydia Davis. - 1 online resource (xxviii, 375 pages) : illustrations
Includes bibliographical references (pages 362-365) and index.
Introduction : Coleridge and the rule of law -- The battle of self -- Coleridge's Malta -- The constitutional position of the civil commissioner -- Coleridge's proclamations and public notices -- Thematic Analysis of the proclamations and public notices -- An Assessment of the proclamations and public notices -- Translations of the proclamations and public notices -- The British occupation of Malta. Appendices
"Samuel Taylor Coleridge is best known as a great poet and literary theorist, but for a period of his life he held real political power, acting as Public Secretary to the British Civil Commissioner in Malta in 1805. Barry Hough and Howard Davis show how Coleridge's actions in this role differ markedly from the idealism he had advocated before taking office--shedding new light on Coleridge's sense of political and legal morality. Meticulously researched and including newly discovered archival materials, Coleridge's Laws provides detailed analysis of the laws and public notices drafted by Coleridge, together with the first published translations of them."--Publisher's description.
