Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 January 2010
Summary
The critic of the future may well have a dual training – psychiatric and formal-esthetic. His psychiatric training will teach him the ABCs of understanding unconscious reactions; his training in problems of aesthetic form … [will teach] the standards for the formal-literary judgment of the presentation of the contents of the unconscious.
