F.R. Leavis by Ian Mackillop
A collection of new studies on one of the best known and most important British literary critics of the twentieth century. The book is divided into four sections: documentary analysis of Leavis's practice as a teacher, drawing on seminar notes, lecture handouts, reading lists and other material; new bibliographical data, including a detailed account of Leavis's project to turn Daniel Deronda into a new novel called Gwendolen Harleth; critical essays on Leavis's thought; and memoirs of different phases in Leavis's career, from the 1930s to the 1960s. The volume also includes an up-to-date Reader's Guide to Leavis's own writings and to the many studies of his work.
Professor Ian MacKillop was formerly Professor of English Literature at the University of Sheffield and the author of F.R.Leavis: A Life in Criticism (Allen Lane/St. Martin's Press, 1995). Richard Storer is Senior Lecturer in English, Trinity All Saints, Leeds.
