Hi Claudia,
In this poem I found some characteristics of Romanticism like the idea of Liberty especially when men are able to be free in order to work and manipulate all natural resources.
Hi Claudia,
Thanks for your comment. I totally agree with you when you say that the idea is to feel "touched" by the poem. If people didn't feel touched by different works of art, art would not have sense itself at all. With regards to the "simpleness" of Coleridge's poetry, like he says, I do think it's simple but only as long as you get into it. If you don't get into it, I'm afraid it's rather difficult to understand his poetry and poetry in general as well.
Thanks Claudia for your comment!!!I have enjoyed very much your classes.
Maria Jose
