In 1815 the Napoleonic wars ended and a new round of the culture wars began. One year after Coleridge published Sibylline leaves including the revised Rime of the Ancient Mariner and the same year the Biographia Literaria appeared (1817), a very different series of publications, of more material and immediate national concern, occupied the public. A series of pamphlet parodies and the radical journal Hone’s Reformist’s Register led in the spring to the arrest of William Hone for blasphemous and seditious libel. Far below the relatively respectable level even of Coleridge’s newspaper satires of the 1790s, a cheap radical press had been thriving in London once again since the end of the war, despite a concentrated program of government repression.
