Description
The Collected Critical Writings brings together more than forty years of Geoffrey Hill's published criticism in a revised final form. This comprehensive collection also includes new work, providing a definitive overview of Hill's critical thought.
Hill's criticism spans a wide range of writers and subjects, from poets like Jonson, Dryden, and Yeats to prose writers such as Tyndale and Hobbes. He is known for his nuanced understanding of the historical context in which these writers worked, and for bringing texts and contexts into new and telling relations.
Through his criticism, Hill reveals literature as an essential arena of civic intelligence, exploring themes such as language, value, and the nature of poetry itself. This collection will be a valuable resource for scholars and readers interested in literary theory and criticism.
