English Literary Criticism : The Medieval Phase Paperback / softback
by J. W. H. Atkins
Part of the J. W. H. Atkins on Literary Criticism series
Paperback / softback
Description
In England literary consciousness had its beginning in the middle ages, and this book, originally published in 1943, describes and illustrates the first phases of the growth of a tradition of criticism.
It does not confine itself to writers whose interest was in the vernacular, for there was a larger European movement of which English criticism was a part.
It embodied much of the ancient teaching, but it shows recurring efforts to arrive at the nature and art of poetry; it provides a key to contemporary literature and is of great help in understanding what really happened at the 16th Century Renaissance.
