'Journeys Over Land and Sea' ?! (1 Viewer)

[Ace-Of-Spades]

Hey, i know this was a suggested text to do with Coleridge, but how is this text an imaginative journey.
"Other books in the collections express the anxieties of the earliest travelers, who journeyed into the unknown fearful of monsters, savage weather..."
These exploreres would have had to speculate of such fears before they could turn into rational fears?
The images, obvioussly are imaginative, how can ANY of this relate to Coleridge?

Have a look at the second illustration. Anthropomorphised suns moons etc. Now think Coleridge's romantic ideology/panthiesm etc
