This series gathers together a 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 carefully selected sources range from
important essays in the history of criticism to journalism and
contemporary opinion, and documentary material such as letters and
diaries. Pieces of criticism from later periods are also included,
in order to demonstrate the fluctuations in an author's reputation.
First published in 1995. The Critical Heritage series collects
together a large body of criticism on major figures in literature.
Each volume presents the contemporary responses to a particular
writer, enabling the student to follow the formation of critical
attitudes to the writer's work and its place within a literary
tradition. This collection of critical writings about Dante, many
of them published here in English for the first time, tries to
offer a balanced survey of the poet's reception in both time and
space. Its scope therefore differs from that of its main
predecessors in both English and Italian.
