This paper tries to investigate Coleridge's theoretical potentials and major contributions to literary criticism. First and foremost, this discussion will focus on the reasons, both conscious and subconscious, that led such a prominent romantic poet to abandon verse writing in favor of focusing almost exclusively on criticism, public culture, religion, or politics. The intellectual, epistemological, and artistic underpinnings of his critical enterprise, whether theoretical or practical, are of equal interest. In the final section, we survey the legacy of his critical writings on the literary scene and the various responses he has elicited from authors.

Conception of Poetry, Coleridgean phenomenon, Literary theory, Absenting, Criticism, Defamiliarization, Aesthetic pleasure, Signifiers and signified.
