		<description><![CDATA[Alan Wall: The collection exists in order to hold ruin at bay, so there is an acute poignancy to the ruin of any collection. Particle meets anti-particle; annihilation ensues. Alfred Russel Wallace spent years putting together his collection of animals and plants from the Amazon. The brig on to which they were loaded for return to England caught fire, and almost everything was destroyed. ]]></description>

The scrambling subjects of the private plate;
While Time their actions and their names bereaves,
They grin forever in the guarded leaves.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Michelene Wandor: The first ‘Very Short Introduction’ appeared in the mid-1990s, and now there are nearly 300 books, which have sold over three million copies, and been translated into over twenty-five languages. The virtue is unadorned: A 'Very Short Introduction' contains all you need to know in order to decide if you need to know more. The recipe is a tough call: a 'Very Short Introduction' must necessarily historicise, provide an epistemological guide to the subject, analyse its conceptual and ideological issues, and wrap it all up – for now. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Percy Fitzgerald: There is one view of Dickens which has scarcely been sufficiently dealt with, namely, his relations with his literary brethren and friends, as editor and otherwise. These exhibit him in a most engaging light, and will perhaps be a surprise even to those abundantly familiar with his amiable and gracious ways.]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://fortnightlyreview.co.uk/?p=5736</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Alan Wall: Although radically different books, both Michelene Wandor’s writing and Myra Sklarew’s exhibit a detailed curiosity regarding the minutiae of existence, whether itemising seventeenth-century trade or arachnid encounters. The threads that tie dissimilarities together, whether gossamer or memories of Lithuania, hold the poems together with an alert gracefulness. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[THE BUSINESS OF LIVING early and working late seems like a New England virtue. Certainly, it is one that Ruth Stone, a Yankee poet, mastered perfectly. It&#8217;s not surprising that for a poet whose work – and not her celebrity – makes her &#8220;major&#8221;, it took most of us a lifetime to catch up to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Edward Dowden: Coleridge broke with tradition in the vulgar sense of the word; he broke with tradition in theology, philosophy, politics; yet he did so in a spirit more truly loyal to the past than was the common orthodoxy in theology or philosophy, or the common Toryism in politics.]]></description>

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://fortnightlyreview.co.uk/?p=5319</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Anthony Howell: With Quietism, form fits content as water fits a jug: it’s an abstract fusion that appeals to creative people who value the plastic properties of their medium.  In poetry, its focus on familiar experiences or tasks that usually go unremarked, such as breaking eggs, is equivalent to a painter’s preoccupation with still-life. Significance is downplayed, but something is ‘brought to life.’ ]]></description>
