"The Road to Xanadu" the long awaited work on Samuel Taylor Coleridge by Professor G. L. Lowes '05 is to be published on April 27. For the past seven or eight years Professor Lowes has been engaged in an exhaustive study of Coleridge manuscripts and books relating to the life and works of the poet.
He has made numerous trips to Europe to examine material for his study and hopes to present the most finished and most intensive record of the man yet achieved. In tracing the genius of Coleridge, Professor Lowes hopes to throw light upon the varying moods and other causes which so influenced the poet in his work.
On leave of absence for a second half of the college year, Professor Lowes is at present in Sicily, but before he sailed a month ago he made final corrections upon the proofs making it possible for the work to be published in five weeks.
