Virginia Lee, I’d be curious to hear what you think of it.

Mike, that’s a really good question, and I don’t know the answer. I suspect it spread first to other British colonies and to the States before England. I also read something that said it was a discipline in Scotland before England.

Now you’ve made me want to go and dig up this book. A friend of mine sent it to me over the summer and neither me nor my mom was inclined to pick it up for some reason.

I’m so glad I stopped in this evening. Thanks for the rec!

I did not know that, about the genesis of English Lit as a discipline. It makes sense, though.

So how did it spread to, say, here?
