    About this ebook

    In this scholarly text, Vaughan selects some of the best critics of English literature up to his writing (1922) and looks at their work on various types of literature: poetry; dramas; prose. Also unusually he chooses Botticelli, the Italian painter, as one of those critics whom he references.

      Sep 22, 2021

      Have you noticed that, as a group, prophets tend to be a grumpy lot? From Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Isaiah, right down to Carlyle, Ruskin, Spengler and beyond: gloominess and bad weather as far as the eye can see. There are many reasons for this, beginni

      A Most Unreliable Culture Warrior

      Jan 27, 2022

      ONE OF THE STRONGEST POINTS in J.C. Squire’s favour is the well-nigh fabulous contempt in which he was held by the liberal intelligentsia of his time. F.R. Leavis declared he was the epitome of all that was meant by the word “philistine”. Virginia Wo

      The Autopoietic World of Franz Kafka

      Nov 1, 2020

      This essay is about the implications of Franz Kafka’s work for those of us interested in classical liberalism in relation to politics, law, and economics; it is not an exercise in literary criticism in any conventional sense. The quest aims to unpick

      Why We Need A New Movement

      WHEN, IN 1951, IGOR STRAVINSKY and his wife Vera took tea with the Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna of Russia, his biographer Robert Craft was present, and he was not impressed. Stravinsky bowed deeply; Vera curtsied, and — as Craft noticed, bewildered —

      Feb 24, 2022

      I’m a fan of Jonathan Meades, but his piece on Welsh and Wales was a nasty mix of cliché, minority-bashing, cultural snobbery and factual inaccuracy. He knows neither the country nor anything of the past and present life of the Welsh language. He doe
