Coleridge on Shakespeare(Shakespeare Library)
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Prior to Coleridge, as Professor Harbage remarks in an introduction to this volume, the great critics tended to "present Shakespeare at a remove. When we read Johnson, we think what a wonderful man Johnson is. When we read Schlegel, we think what a wonderful summary this is. When we read Coleridge, we think what a wonderful artist is Shakespeare. Coleridge's is the criticism with immediacy...when he speaks, Shakespeare is there."
In this edition Terence Hawkes has given a logical order to everything that was written (or spoken) by Coleridge about Shakespeare as poet and dramatist. His sound text (unencumbered by scholarly trimmings) assembles in one book the scattered enthusiasms, the considered opinions, and the random thoughts of one great poet about another and greater. These essays, notes, and lectures confirm Coleridge's reputation as the greatest Shakespearian critic of the last century.
