Practical Criticism

Introduces a new kind of documentation to those who are interested in the contemporary state of culture whether as critics, as philosophers, as teachers, as psychologists, or merely as curious persons. Provides a new technique for those who wish to discover for themselves what they think and feel about poetry (and cognate matters) and why they should like or dislike it. Prepares the way for more efficient educational methods in developing discrimination and the power to understand what we hear and read.
