The panel discusses the second half of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, with particular attention given to the theology of the Mariner’s sin, contrition, and absolution, and the relation of that theology to and within the Romantic conception of Nature.

  1. Really enjoyed this discussion. Couldn’t help but think of John Donne’s The Cross (Look up, thou seest birds raised on crossed wings) as well as Holy Sonnet – I am a little world made cunningly… Thanks for this.
