Exploring the Main Theme of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s Poem “Kubla Khan” and Its “Preface”
Keywords:
Main Theme, Samuel Taylor Coleridge Poem, “Kubla Khan”,Abstract
There are two main purposes for this paper. The first is an analysis of the
“Preface” of “Kubla Khan,” which attracts critics’ attention and confounds
them, as the poem proves it is symbolic and reflects the poem itself. The
second is to explore the profundity of the poem and its main theme, which
is poetic creativity and its antithetical elements by studying the images in
the poem. Furthermore, the study seeks to demonstrate that the characters in
“Kubla Khan” serve as creators each of whom reflects the creative poet. This
paper proves that the poem is an organic entity, although it seems that there is
a hiatus between lines 36 and 37.
