Henry Alford : Chapters on the Poets of Ancient Greece
Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 1-6 January 1842: 'Did you see Mr Hunter's treatise upon the Tempest? Mr Kenyon "caused it to pass before my face" & I did not complain of the briefness of the vision [...] I have been reading too by the same grace .. of dear Mr Kenyon .. Mr Alford's Chapters on the Greek poets. I dont like them at all. Such criticism, on the surface & of long familiarity with the common eye, the sense of the world has outgrown. It wd have done for those days when poetry was considered a pretty play like skittles, but is not suitable to this [italics]now[end italics], when its popularity as a toy is passed, & its depth & holiness as a science more surely tho' partially regarded.'
