what romantic idea tht creation and destruction are contained within each other and how coleridge adresses the concept

When the mariner shoots an albatross, he does it casually and without animosity. Yet this impulsive, destructive act is his undoing. Similar to other Romantics, Coleridge believed that the seeds of destruction and creation are contained each within the other. One cannot create something without destroying something else. Likewise, destruction leads to the creation of something new. The loss of the mariner’s ship, shipmates, and his own former self ultimately leads to the regeneration of the mariner.
