"The reader who is specially interested in the historic development of French
criticism will hardly find elsewhere any exposition comparable to this of the whole movement
of that criticism during the last hundred years. Still less will he find elsewhere
a presentation of the subject through the medium of so admirable a series of portraits
...But least of all will one find elsewhere such a penetrating analysis of the influence
of modern criticism for good and evil on literature and on the intellectual welfare of
the age." Nation, 1913.

Elton, Oliver. 820.9 E56
Survey of English literature, 1780-1830. 2v. 1912. Arnold.
" 'The book,' [Professor Elton] writes, 'is really a review, a direct criticism, of
everything I can find in the history of fifty years that speaks to me with any sound
of living voice.' As such it must be judged, and as such—if we mistake not—it will be
held to be the most entirely satisfactory contribution to this vast and perennially interesting
subject that has yet appeared. Necessarily the personal equation plays a considerable
part in these appreciations and criticisms.. . But his judgments are always
sane and well-balanced." Academy, 1912.
