Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834) – English Romantic poet, critic, and philosopher, celebrated alongside William Wordsworth as a founder of the movement and one of the "Lake Poets." His most famous works—The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Christabel, and Kubla Khan—were composed between 1797 and 1803, a brief but brilliant creative period. Co-author of Lyrical Ballads, Coleridge also wrote the seminal Biographia Literaria, introducing the concept of the "suspension of disbelief." His visionary imagination and philosophical depth left a lasting mark on English literature.
