Jeffrey's Criticism: A Selection

Jeffrey's Criticism: A Selection

Peter F. Morgan
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Francis Jeffrey held an important position as leader and moulder of public taste in the first third of the nineteenth century. This selection of his contributions to the Edinburgh Review, of which he was Editor between 1802 and 1829, is the first edition of his criticism since 1910. The voices most loudly heard by his contemporaries were those of Jeffrey and his fellow periodical critics, and not those which we think of today as expressive of the period - Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley, Lamb, Hazlitt and de Quincey. Jeffrey was also largely responsible for instituting the format of the full-scale review essay which has persisted in significance to this day.
