1 This is no place for an essay on The Historical Method of Criticism. Its chief limitation is that it does not exist: there exists only Criticism. What is called The Historical Method of Criticism is ancillary to Criticism, supplying it with facts of a certain kind. It is then for criticism to decide which of them are relevant, and what they mean.— All this has very little to do with Dr. Bowra's book.
