Coleridge Family Papers. Vols. dcxii-dcxxix. Silva volumes. Many members of the Coleridge family kept these commonplace books, a habit instilled at Eton. The emphasis of the volumes was upon literary extracts, both prose and poetry, with some prayers, monumental inscriptions and other items of interest. In addition to shedding light upon the individual tastes of the volumes' compilers, these silvae gain an added value as a result of the close connections between the compilers and noted poets of the age, especially Samuel Taylor Coleridge and John Keble. John Taylor Coleridge remarked in a letter to Sara Coleridge: 'My father had a vellum covered volume of my Uncle's MS poetry – in his own hand – from this in 1807 I copied one of the earliest – if not the earliest form in which the Chatterton Ode appeared'.
Eighteen volumes.
