Samuel Taylor Coleridge
(Oct. 21, 1772 - July 25, 1834)
Samuel Taylor Coleridge was born in Ottery St. Mary to a vicar, who died shortly after. He left Cambridge without a degree, and married shortly after, meanwhile carrying on an affair with William Wordsworth's sister, Dorothy. One of his most famous poems, "Kubla Khan" was (by his own profession) written during an opium dream - although he claimed it remained unfinished because he was distracted while writing it. Besides his poetry, he also wrote on such diverse topics as literary theorty, politics, and philosophy. _________________ Roland Camilleri
