BEOWULF: THE CRITICAL HERITAGE

THE CRITICAL HERITAGE SERIES

GENERAL EDITOR: B.C.SOUTHAM, M.A., B.LITT. (OXON.)

Formerly Department of English, Westfield College, University of London

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.

The carefully selected sources range from landmark essays in the history of criticism

to fragments of contemporary opinion and little-published documentary material,

such as letters and diaries.

Significant pieces of criticism from later periods are also included in order to

demonstrate fluctuations in reputation following the writer’s death.

For a list of volumes in the series, see the end of the book.
