ABSTRACT

In the context of this entry Coleridge might easily be giving the word apothecary a half-punning invidious use too, if he had Dr John Brown in mind, “no Kantian” as Coleridge had said years before. CN I 389, 904 and n. Brown’s Elements of Medicine (see CN I 389, 904 and nn) treated sleep and dreams only slightly and superficially in his Pt II Chap VII as not sufficiently matters of fact for his (unimaginative) medical treatment. See above an important entry on him, 4834 and n, and 5142.
