Modernity and Progress
Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and the Twenties
"The Great Gatsby" and Modern Times
A stunning piece of work. If Fitzgerald could have wished for one reader of The Great Gatsby, it would have been Ronald Berman.

The writers of the seventeenth century agreed with their predecessors: Montai…
Herrick's secular poetry
Nature in Venice Preserv'd
It is probably surprising to discover how many of our best literary minds have taken positions on Venice Preserv'd. Dryden, Addison, Dr. Johnson, Hazlitt, Lord Byron, Goethe-in a way the criticism of this play has become a strand of our intellectual history.' Two judgments in particular seem to me valuable, Dryden's eloquent phrase but nature is there, 2 and Dr. Johnson's summary it is the work of a man not attentive to decency, nor zealous for v…
