Excerpt from The Revival of Criticism: A Paper Read at the Meeting of the Classical Association at Oxford on May 17th, 1919 So ambitious a title as The Revival of Criticism requires a preliminary apology. When I ask you not to look too maliciously for a ludicrous disproportion between the scope and the result, I plead two grounds: first, an unfortunate idiosyncrasy which warns me to cast the frame of an unwritten paper very wide lest my pen carry me right out of the circumscription; secondly, it may be held that some largeness and looseness of texture is suitable to a meeting where the bond of association is Classical without restriction. Perhaps we have too little of generalities nowadays; certainly this is a proper occasion for some. The history of scholarship (everybody allows) falls into epochs, in each of which a national influence has predominated: successive stages of the Humanist Renascence are the Italian, the Franco-Italian, the French, the Dutch. Then at last in Britain, where the English Reformation had nipped Renascence in the bud and the Scottish had destroyed it unborn, there begin to be great scholars in the 18th century; and to us, by their own claim, which is generally admitted, the Germans succeeded.
