Dive into the insightful world of John Churton Collins, a distinguished literary critic who lived from 1848 to 1908. Appointed as the professor of English literature at Birmingham University in 1904, Collins offers a fascinating exploration of the lives of English and German authors, ranging from the iconic William Shakespeare to the celebrated Alfred, Lord Tennyson. His essays were crafted as a response to Thomas Carlyles On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History (1840). After his passing, his son, L.C. Collins, meticulously curated these writings from various sources, preserving his fathers legacy. Join Craig Campbell for a captivating summary and enjoy additional proof-listening by Larry Wilson.
