In this 1915 publication, Reilly sets out to examine Lowell’s “right to a place in the brilliant company of admitted critics.” Reilly presents a thoughtful analysis of Lowell and his work, the range of his knowledge, his biases and sympathies, and finally concludes that Lowell’s rightful place as a critic must be “as impressionist.” This book presents an intriguing portrait of a literary giant, who is best remembered today for his critical writings and satire.
