Criticism is just what you do when you can neither write fiction or philosophy

>implying lesbianism isn't the most Veeky Forums sexuality

The Schlegels, Sainte-Beuve, George Steiner, Erich Auerbach, Harold Goddard, Helen Vendler, etc.

Found the critic

The answer is
>Samuel Taylor Coleridge
by the way

He's already in there desu

You made me wet with accuracy.

I also supplied the STC, doll--
which BETTER be correct....

Johnson, Bloom, Wilson, Hazlitt.
Arnold and Eliot are awful imo, especially eliot

Unfair to Johnson, but the rest are moot. On the other hand consider the parameters: Veeky Forums.

Wait. Perhaps I misread /you/...

>Judith Butler
Why did Butler write Gender Trouble in such an obscuring fashion? Literally, her writing style hinders her ability to communicate her ideas clearly, which actually hold a lot of merit.

Sokol Affair my duded B)

>shits on Arnold
>praises Bloom
neck yourself

Yeah most of these are classics

You're just repeating what Bloom say

All of her ideas are either trivial or stupid

who da missing critic? Auden? Coleridge? Cool Bill Empson? My mang Isaac Disraeli?
>The defects of great men are the consolation of the dunces. ID
The Amenities of Literature, The Curiosities of Literature: totes the shit.

Virginia Woolfe

Because he too dislikes Eliot's criticism? Eliot just has shit taste, some of his favorites are utter nonentities

At least bloom has had some original thoughts. Arnold's criticism never goes below the surface
