"The Critical Heritage" series gathers together a large body of
critical sources on major figures in literature. Each volume
presents contemporary responses to a writer's work, enabling
students and researchers to read for themselves, for example,
comments on early performances of Shakespeare's plays, or reactions
to the first publication of Jane Austen's novels. The selected
sources range from important essays in the history of criticism to
journalism and contemporary opinion, and documentary material such
as letters and diaries. Significant pieces of criticism from later
periods are also included, in order to demonstrate the fluctuations
in an author's reputation. Each volume contains an introduction to
the writer's published works, a selected bibliography, and an index
of works, authors and subjects. The Critical Heritage is available
as a set of 67 volumes, as mini- sets selected by period (in
slipcase boxes) or as individual volumes.
Whereas crime more generally has fallen over the last 20 years,
levels of serious youth violence remain high. This book presents
innovative research into the complex relationship between adverse
childhood experiences and serious youth violence. While the
implementation of trauma-informed approaches to working with
adolescents in the justice system is becoming common practice,
there remains a dearth of research into the efficacy of such
approaches. Foregrounding young people’s voices, this book
explores the theoretical underpinnings of trauma and the
manifestations of childhood adversity. The authors conclude by
advocating for a more psychosocial approach to trauma-informed
policy and practice within the youth justice system.
First published in 1972, this book provides a helpful introduction
to burlesque literature, a term used by critics from the
seventh-century onwards to describe work in which an incongruity
between serious subject-matter and style is used to provoke
laughter. It examines the four main types of burlesque writing:
Travesty, Hudibrastic, Parody and the Mock-Poem, as well as
dramatic burlesques.
First published in 1974, this book provides a helpful overview to
the ode. After introducing the reader to classical odes, it goes on
to trace the development of two major types: the Pindaric ode and
the Horatian ode. The book concludes with a study of odes from the
nineteenth and twentieth-centuries. This book will be of particular
interest to those studying poetry, verse form and literature more
generally.
The Critical Heritage gathers together a large body of critical

researcher to read the material themselves.
The authors in this collection join an animated debate on the
persistence of Romanticism. Even as dominant twentieth-century
cultural movements have contested Romantic ""myths"" of redemptive
Nature, individualism, perfectibility, the transcendence of art,
and the heart's affections, the Romantic legacy survives as a point
of tension and of inspiration for modern writers. Rejecting the
Bloomian notion of anxious revisionism, ""The Monstrous Debt""
argues that various kinds of influences, inheritances, and
indebtedness exist between well-known twentieth-century authors and
canonical Romantic writers. Among the questions asked by this
volume are: How does Blake's graphic mythology submit to
""redemptive translations"" in the work of Dylan Thomas? How might
Ted Hughes' strong readings of a ""snaky"" Coleridge illuminate the
""mercurial"" poetic identity of Sylvia Plath? How does Shelley
""sustain"" the work of W. B. Yeats and Elizabeth Bishop with
supplies of ""imaginative oxygen""? In what ways does Keats enable
Bob Dylan to embrace influence? How does Keats prove inadequate for
Tony Harrison as he confronts contemporary violence? How does
""cockney"" Romanticism succeed in shocking John Betjeman's poetry
out of kitsch into something new and strange? ""The Monstrous
Debt"" seeks to broaden our sense of what ""influence"" is by
defining the complex of relations that contribute to the making of
the modern literary text. Scholars and students of the Romantic era
will enjoy this informative volume.
