How did Samuel Taylor Coleridge die?

Answer 1

Coleridge spent the last eighteen years of his life at Highgate, near London, England, as a patient under the care of Dr. James Gillman. There he wrote several works which were to have tremendous influence on the future course of English thought in many fields: Biographia literaria (1817), Lay Sermons (1817), Aids to Reflection(1825), and The Constitution of Church and State(1829).

When Coleridge died on July 25, 1834, at Highgate, he left bulky manuscript notes that scholars of the mid-twentieth century found and began editing. When the material is eventually published, scholars and the general public will realize the extraordinary range and depth of Coleridge's philosophical thoughts, and will understand his true impact on generations of poets and thinkers.

Answer 2

Samuel Taylor Coleridge died of heart failure in 1834. He had a history of poor health, including issues with his lungs and digestive system, which weakened his overall well-being.
