A lively account of the ways in which literary criticism developed through the mid-seventeenth to the mid-eighteenth centuries, from the informal verbal responses of readers and playgoers, through engagement of authors in criticising each other's works, to the establishment of editors and book reviewers as official arbiters of literary taste.
