Notes
One letter written from Coleridge to his wife is included in MA 1848 as it was added to a letter he was writing to Robert Southey. The letter is described in MA 1848.60 and is published in the Collected Letters of Samuel Taylor Coleridge cited below as Letter no. 517.
These letters are from the Joanna Langlais Collection, a large collection of letters written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge to various recipients. The collection has been divided into subsets, based primarily on Coleridge's addressees, and these sub-collections have been cataloged individually as MA 1848- MA 1857.
The letters were originally accompanied by short summaries in the hand of Ernest Hartley Coleridge. These summaries have been removed and are housed in the Collection File.
