Coleridge on Logic and Learning

"Coleridge on Logic and Learning" offers a scholarly exploration of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's contributions to the fields of logic and educational theory. While Coleridge is widely recognized for his Romantic poetry, this work focuses on his rigorous intellectual engagement with the structures of human thought and the processes of intellectual growth. Alice D. Snyder presents a detailed analysis of how Coleridge sought to synthesize the demands of formal logic with the expansive, intuitive insights characteristic of his broader philosophy.

By examining his unpublished notes and systematic writings, the study illuminates Coleridge's attempt to create a cohesive framework for understanding. The text traces the influence of various philosophical traditions on his work, highlighting his pursuit of a "Logos" that could harmonize reason and imagination. This analysis provides critical insight into Coleridge's role as a philosopher and pedagogue, demonstrating his belief that learning is an organic integration of logic and life. "Coleridge on Logic and Learning" serves as a foundational text for researchers of the Romantic era, history of philosophy, and the development of modern educational thought.
