Oxfam bookshop byres road the development of literary theory in the lifetime of coleridge was to a surprising extent the making of the modern critical mind the primary concern of this book is with the english theory of poetry, and to a lesser extent of the other major arts, during the first four decades of the nineteenth centuryit stresses the common orientation which justifies us in identifying a specifically 'romantic' criticism; but not, i trust, at the cost of overlooking the many important diversities among the writers who concern themselves with the nature of poetry or art, its psychological genesis, its constitution and kinds, its major criteria, and its relation to other original and enduring critics of the time, rather than with the run-of-the-mill reviewers who often had more immediate, though shorter-lived influence on the general reading publicthere were many important differences between, let us say, horace's art of poetry and the criticism of drthis continuity was broken by the theories or romantic writers, english and german; and their innovations include many of the points of view and procedures which make the characteristic differences between traditional criticism and the criticism of our own time, including some criticism which professes to be anti-romanticsee oxfam website for delivery information read morejohnston, but there was also a discernible continuity in premises, aims and methods
