Abstract

The present work analyses The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor
Coleridge from a Christian, Platonic and Neo-platonic perspective with the intention of
elucidating who of the poem’s main two characters, the Mariner and the Wedding-guest,
represents wisdom and who foolishness. With that intent, the previously alluded doctrines
and different texts will be brought into the discussion.
