Sed horum omnium familiam quis nobis enarrabit ? et gradus et cognationes et discrimina et singulorum munera ? Quid agunt ? quae loca habitant ? Harum rerum notitiam semper ambivit ingenium humanum, nunquam attigit. THE RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINERįacile credo, plures esse Naturas invisibiles quam visibiles in rerum universitate. THE RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER Illustrated SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGEĪll rights reserved. "Some critics think that Coleridge drew upon James's account of hardship and lamentation in writing The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." Read more Critics have also suggested that the poem may have been inspired by the voyage of Thomas James into the Arctic. On this second voyage Cook crossed three times into the Antarctic Circle to determine whether the fabled great southern continent existed. The poem may have been inspired by James Cook's second voyage of exploration (1772–1775) of the South Seas and the Pacific Ocean Coleridge's tutor, William Wales, was the astronomer on Cook's flagship and had a strong relationship with Cook.
They soon find that they made a grave mistake in supporting this crime, as it arouses the wrath of spirits who then pursue the ship "from the land of mist and snow" the south wind that had initially led them from the land of ice now sends the ship into uncharted waters near the equator, where it is becalmed." However, the sailors change their minds when the weather becomes warmer and the mist disappears. The crew is angry with the mariner, believing the albatross brought the south wind that led them out of the Antarctic. An albatross appears and leads them out of the ice jam where they are stuck, but even as the albatross is praised by the ship's crew, the mariner shoots the bird. Despite initial good fortune, the ship is driven south by a storm and eventually reaches Antarctic waters. "The mariner's tale begins with his ship departing on its journey. The wedding-guest's reaction turns from bemusement to impatience to fear to fascination as the mariner's story progresses, as can be seen in the language style: Coleridge uses narrative techniques such as personification and repetition to create a sense of danger or serenity, depending on the mood in different parts of the poem. The mariner stops a man who is on the way to a wedding ceremony and begins to narrate a story. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner relates the experiences of a sailor who has returned from a long sea voyage. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the longest major poem by the English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
