Hi, I'm a student from Thailand and this semester I have to do 5-7 pages essay about Coleridge. The point is that my teacher asked me to think of my own topic for my essay and I can't figure it out. My friend had already taken the topic of Gothic element in his poem so I don't want my essay to look like her. I've thought about Alliteration in Coleridge's poem but I'm not sure whether I can write about this topic that long. So if anyone have any idea of any kind of topics ( except the gothic element and romantic element ) please let me know; just only topic that you think I can lenghten it to 5-7 pages, no need to add any informations. Thank you in advance. :)

Hello ! Many critics have written books about Coleridge's poetry, so it is getting more and more difficult to choose a topic. I suggest you a few classical issues such as "Nature", "Beauty" in the "Conversation Poems", or "bad and evil" in the "Mystery Poems". You may focuse your attention on the use of supernatural in the latter poems, on movement or on imagination. I am sure you will find something interesting, provided that you don't stop to the fact that you cannot picture out a topic. I hope I have been of some help to you.
