In Coleridge’s great poem, the killing of the albatross has catastrophic consequences. But it also pushes the perpetrator of this apparently senseless crime, the mariner, to embark on a journey of inner exploration that transforms how he approaches both the natural world and those invisible realities that always had the utmost importance for Coleridge himself.
