His study is first and foremost an investigation of Coleridge's criticism based on Coleridge's own ideas about language and reading. While taking its particular direction from a variety of contemporary literary theories, the book is most concerned with how Coleridge's critical prose and theoretical positions anticipate these in an exceptionally complex way.","brand":"University of Georgia Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611613479063,"sku":"9780820332406","price":3433.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780820332406.webp?v=1775071796","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/coleridge-language-and-criticism-9780820332406","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
