영문 초록

This article demonstrates how Aeolian harp can be used as a literary model in the nineteenth century, which is useful to the understanding of the change of the physical basis of human response and sensitivity. According to Hartley’s argument for the vibrations in Observations on Man, the harp can be a metaphor for Coleridge’s poetic mr ColThe sound of the harp can be a metaphor for his poetry. This research will elaborate upon the materialistic concepts about his response to its vibrations, focusing on the poems such as “The Aeolian Harp” and “Dejection: An Ode.” A wind has important functions in both poems. In “The Aeolian Harp,” the gentle breeze guides him into mild gratification and peaceful meditation. The harp as an image soothing his sad and thoughtful state of mind reflects how his body vibrates and functions. In “Dejection: An Ode,” a noisy wind arouses his passionate feelings such as agony and delight. Here he emphasizes the disorderly vibrations of the wind providing the sublime kinds of disturbance. The sublime is associated with his pain and consolation and can be of much help to the understanding of why he wants the strong wind to reduce his distress. The harp can be a model for stimulating his mind out of melancholy and inspiring his poetic composition. This instrument was an invention for embodying the relationship between his mind and nature. Therefore, the crucial point the harp image conveys is that it can be one of the main symbols of the Romantic culture which reflects human appreciation of the materiality of mind in relation to the external nature.
