The Critical Heritage gathers together a large body of critical sources on major figures in literature. Each volume presents contemporary responses to a writer''s work,enabling students and researchers to read for themselves, for example, comments on early performances of Shakespeare''s plays, or reactions to the first publication of Jane Austen''s novels. The carefully selected sources range from landmark essays in the history of criticism to journalism and contemporary opinion, and little published documentary material such as letters and diaries. Significant pieces of criticism from later periods are also included, in order to demonstrate the fluctuations in an author''s reputation. Each volume contains an introduction to the writer''s published works, a selected bibliography, and an index of works, authors and subjects The Collected Critical Heritage set will be available as a set of 68 volumes and the series will also be available in mini sets selected by period (in slipcase boxes), and as individual volumes.
Industry Reviews

'What is so interesting in the contributions in these volumes is the insight they give into how their contemporaries viewed these authors and how in succeeding generations the importance of their contributions to English literature have ebbed and flowed.' - Jean Plaister, Library Association Record
