The article presents information on the book "Lockhart's Literary Criticism," by M. Clive Hildyard. In some ways this is a disappointing book. The Scotch Reviewers have a terrific reputation, thanks to the common idea that they killed the poet John Keats and apart from this legend, anyone interested in the literature of the period cannot help being aware of the effectiveness of periodical criticism in those days. It was a literary dictatorship such as had never existed before, and such as one has never seen since.
