Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Leaders in Literature: With a Notice of Traditional Errors Affecting Them
First, - The inadequate distinction made (together with its consequences) between the Literature of Power, on the one hand, and the Literature of Knowledge, on the other.
Secondly, - The imbecility of that critical canon pre vailing through the last 150 years, which has referred the poetry of Dryden and Pope to an imaginary French School.
