The Rime of the Ancient Mariner Summary

CBSE Notes for The Rime of the Ancient Mariner Summary - Chapter 11

Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ is quite different from the works of other romantic poets. It is based on a dream of Coleridge’s friend and was published in 1798. It is written in the style of a folk ballad and is divided into seven parts. The poem has a scattering of references to outdated beliefs and practices. It is surely not only the mariner, who is ancient, but even his rhyme is old. There are multiple and contradictory time elements and the poem itself hides its origins. Nevertheless, the extravagant use of archaic words makes it appear old. Please refer The Rime of the Ancient Mariner Summary for more revision notes.
