The book is a collection of personal anecdotes, letters, and conversations that Cottle had with the two poets during their time together in Bristol, England, in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.The book offers a unique perspective on the lives and personalities of Coleridge and Southey, as well as their literary works and the cultural and political climate of the time. Cottle's writing style is engaging and vivid, and he paints a vivid picture of the intellectual and artistic community that existed in Bristol during this period.Overall, Reminiscences of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey is a fascinating and insightful book that provides a valuable glimpse into the lives and works of two of the most important poets of the Romantic era, as well as the cultural and intellectual milieu in which they lived and worked.My dear Cottle, ... Public affairs are in strange confusion. I am afraid that I shall prove, at least, as good a Prophet as Bard. Oh, doom'd to fall, my country! enslaved and vile! But may God make me a foreboder of evils never to come! I have heard from Sheridan, desiring me to write a tragedy. I have no genius that way; Robert Southey has. I think highly of his 'Joan of Arc' and cannot help prophesying, that he will be known to posterity, as Shakspeare's great grandson. I think he will write a tragedy or tragedies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
