Samuel taylor coleridge the rime of the ancient mariner most reflects which romantic ideal

“The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” is a prime example of this movement’s style and concerns. Coleridge’s poem tells of an old seafarer who has returned from a harrowing voyage. The mariner stops a guest entering a wedding to share with him his story of escaping death and learning to value every living thing. The elements of Romanticism found in “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” include strong images of the supernatural and nature, as well as a deep thread of spirituality, all explored in an experimental form.
