It is now recognized as a formative influence on English intellectual and cultural life worthy to rank with the great reviews of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This reissue is of the 1963 combined set, including a final volume containing an important Retrospect by Dr Leavis and a substantial analytical index. Scrutiny offers an almost complete critical history of English literature from Chaucer to the mid-twentieth century. Medieval literature, Shakespeare, the seventeenth-century poets, Pope, Dryden, Johnson, the great romantics, the Victorians, and nearly all the important modern writers are seriously examined. Many of the articles have become classics, and resulted in revisions of previously accepted views. An important feature of Scrutiny, still of great interest, is the book review section, where many of the important books of the time, and some of the pretentious ones too, were reviewed as they appeared.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eVolume 2 No. 1 June, 1933: A Cure for Amnesia\u003cbr\u003e Revaluations (I): John Webster\u003cbr\u003e  Festivals of Fire, Section II\u003cbr\u003e Evaluations (II): Croce\u003cbr\u003e English Tradition and Idiom\u003cbr\u003e The French Novel of To-day\u003cbr\u003e 'Hero and Leader,'\u003cbr\u003e Comments and Reviews\u003cbr\u003e 'This Poetical Renascence,'\u003cbr\u003e Songs of Experience, Words for Music Perhaps\u003cbr\u003e Dunbar and the 'Scottish renaissance,'\u003cbr\u003e Donne Not an Elizabethan, The Oxford Book of Sixteenth Century Verse\u003cbr\u003e Sixteen Bobs'-Worth of Culture, The English Muse\u003cbr\u003e The Lost Leader, A Study of Wordsworth\u003cbr\u003e Reading About Art\u003cbr\u003e Dostoevsky or Dickens?
