Coleridge's submerged politics : The ancient mariner and Robinson Crusoe

This text signifies a movement to reinstate historical context as a basis of literary interpretation. Part I links Defoe's slave-trading hero, Crusoe, with the ghost ship of Coleridge's ""Ancient Mariner"", while Part II argues that the poem reflects political events from November 1797 to March 1798.
