Kubla Khan | Samuel Taylor Coleridge - Line by Line Explanation

[@deeparamanathan6772]

What depth What an explanation Did Coleridge's soul enter into you And spoke those words You connect Where there seems no connect You make one piece Of the many pieces of a Jigsaw puzzle Breathtaking is the place, the river and the fountain Breathtaking is the image you create by your own interpretation Kubla Khan, gift of Coleridge Gift wrapped in grandeur of your words How do you do it How can you do it You enter the poem You enter its soul Not a poet Nowhere I stand You inspire me To pen and share my thoughts

[@NibblePop]

You make me feel so humbled! Coleridge was a magician, his words make one feel elevated.

Madam I just want you to make a video on A Grammarian' Funeral

[@khushboosejwal5740]

This was a great analysis Professor! Thank you for this. There are 2 lines in the poem which I think can be interpreted a little bit differently to connect all the images and fragments better. For the line "By woman wailing for her demon-lover!", I think the woman can be viewed as the spirit of nature crying and wailing because of Kubla Khan's interference and attempts at taming the natural beauty. Demons are usually viewed as free, unrestrained spirits. And so, we can say that the Earthly apparition is wailing because she is being separated from her untamed, free spirit which is being restrained and curbed. The second one is for "Ancestral voices prophesying war!". Instead of saying that those were the voices of _Kubla Khan's_ ancestors, I would like to think they were the voices of the ancient spirits of nature. Kubla Khan was an invader of the Chinese lands and in China it is believed that every thing of nature has a spirit: the rivers, the mountains, the trees, the land. Everything. And these spirits are believed to be far more ancient than man. So we can say that it is the voices of the ancient or ancestral spirits of nature that have been disturbed in their rest by the Kubla Khan's interference, and in their wrath (which can be connected to the explosion of the fountain in the previous lines) they place a curse on him, prophesying that his reign will not last long. And it is known that before even completing a full 100 years, Yuan dynasty was replaced by the Ming Dynasty. Please do tell me your opinion on this interpretation.

Hello ma'am, I recently started teaching a poetry, and thought I had lost touch with literature for a while, i got caught up in what's important for a test but when I went through a couple of your lectures, the way you smile when a poet evokes another, or Shakespearian imagery comes into play, makes me want to come back to literature with open arms and once again begin reading as a used to enjoy it a lot as a student of literature. Thank you for this one!

[@parul2581]

Wonderful explanation.. In interesting way.. Kudos👏👏

[@K_F_fox]

It never occurred to me that the plot of this poem is, "they paved paradise, and put up a parking lot." This exegesis is genius. It's like I've *never* read this poem before, even though it's one of my top 5 favorites.

[@NibblePop]

Yup. That's exactly how it was done. And Kubla did so thinking that his creation would immortalize him, kind of earthly paradise. But he made the same mistake that Shelley's Ozymandias did. Hope you've read that piece. You will find uncanny similarity.

[@K_F_fox]

@@NibblePop Since the statue of Ozymandias is "a heap of broken images that brings no comfort," I have to wonder if the name "Prufrock" is a reference to the Person from Porlock. Here's Coleridge, in an state of narcosis, in those caverns measureless to man, lingering in the chambers of the sea by sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown, and the Person from Porlock woke him, and his poetic images all but drowned.

[@zit9206]

I hope you hit 1M soon ma'am 😇❤️

[@sagnikmukherjee9778]

Wonderful explanation as ever, ma'am! Just want to make a comment with regard to the similarity I found between the three stanzas of the poem and the theory of Imagination as propounded by Coleridge himself in "Biographia Literaria"- since it's River Alph, it can be considered as a river of divine creativity(Primary Imagination), since in Greek alphabet series, alpha comes first, and everything starts from it. Moreover, water is the primary source of life and creation, hence Primary Imagination(according to the interpretation of the 1st stanza). In the 2nd stanza, we see destructive forces clashing against each other, amid which Kubla is trying to re-create the pseudo-paradise- 'stately pleasure-dome' in Xanadu. As we've understood from BIOGRAPHIA LITERARIA, that Secondary Imagination is an echo of the Primary. And the last stanza speaks about Fancy, which, according to Coleridge, is a mode of memory, that is propelled and modified by the will, and is expressed by CHOICE. And as you have explained, Coleridge does make a choice with regard to his mode of poetic creativity. So, that's my observation, and I thought of, not just sharing it with you, but also getting the confirmation or approval as regards the same. Thanks in advance 🙏

[@NibblePop]

You are absolutely correct. I am very glad that you mentioned this. Keep commenting. Your observations are very enriching for other viewers as well.
