A Selection from Scrutiny: Volume 1 1st Edition by F. R. Leavis (PDF)

Description

Dr Leavis’s Selection from Scrutiny gives in two volumes important material which is not easily available elsewhere. Though many well-known books have already been derived from Scrutiny, these two volumes do not duplicate material in those books, and they give a great deal of otherwise uncollected material by Dr & Mrs Leavis themselves. The selection concentrates on English literature and literary criticism, and also reflects Scrutiny’s success, from the 1930s to the 1950s, in commenting on the important writers of the time. Volume I begins with a collection of studies by Mrs Q. D. Leavis on academic traditions. There follows a section of studies of T. S. Eliot, Yeats, Pound, and more recent poets. Two sections on ‘Literary Culture’ and ‘The Literary World’ comment on minor writers and on literary life and institutions (including Dr Leavis’s celebrated ‘Keynes, Spender and Currency Values’).

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Although I’d like to own the full set of Scrutiny, this two-volume compilation of articles spread over the entire set is still serving me a great deal of the purpose for which I have long been wanting to read again the Scrutiny articles after a long hiatus since I first had come to handle the journal more than 40 years ago; and in some double-dip of advantages I also got possession of copies of the two volumes inexpensively and in excellent condition for their 50 year-vintage. I already have most of the other books by FR and a few of the other authors compiled out of Scrutiny, but it was pleasant to find that articles in these two volumes are unique to these volumes; QD’s writing I have never had the pleasure of reading before at all and, she proved to be really refreshing reading of critical interpretation
