Honorable Mention for the 2001 Award for Best Professional/Scholarly Book in Multivolume Reference: Humanities, Association of American Publishers "A landmark in Anglo-American scholarship."--Jim McCue, The Times (London) "There is something to celebrate in the fact that J. C. C. Mays has added these final volumes ... to the monumental Princeton University Press Coleridge. Coleridge's verse can now be read in full, and in a form worthy of his best writing. The poems are beautifully presented... In general, this Collected Poems serves its editor's wish: we see a fuller Coleridge ... [with] his exceptional intelligence and sensibility and breadth of information, his exquisite eye and ear."--Barbara Everett, London Review of Books
