Description: Scrutiny. A Quarterly Review, Cambridge, 1949. First Edition, Disbound. Very Good Condition. 4 pages. Note; this is an original article separated from the volume, not a reprint or copy. Scrutiny: A Quarterly Review was a literature periodical founded in 1932 by L. C. Knights and F. R. Leavis, who remained its principal editor until the final issue in 1953. Scrutiny was widely read, and Leavis became very influential in 20th century literary criticism in part because he was editor of the journal. According to Richard Poirier, "Scrutiny's most important achievement was a nearly complete revaluation of English literature". Poirier claims that "Scrutiny had earned more respect and more denunciation than any other quarterly in English". Grant, in responding to Poirier's review of Scrutiny, found that "Scrutiny specialized in being right—half the time. In order to praise, it felt compelled also to damn, and then found it easy to do so because it possessed "standards" against which all works could be judged." (Wikipedia). Size: 14 x 22 cms. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Scrutiny: A Quarterly Review ; Inventory No: 368435.
