Work without Hope
'Work without Hope' Summary
Work Without Hope is a poignant poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge that explores the themes of labor, hope, and the meaninglessness of life. Written in a melancholic tone, the poem reflects on the drudgery of work without the solace of hope for a better future. Coleridge uses vivid imagery of nature and the passing seasons to highlight the fleeting nature of life and the inevitability of death. The poem's powerful language and introspective nature make it a timeless meditation on the human condition.Book Details
