This was the terror before the terror to come. Given such basic queasiness, did it matter that Romanticism had been revalued, philosophical texts and existential issues opened to linguistic analysis, and literary criticism—now difficult, boundary crossing, nongenteel—had refreshed itself?

The new spirit in criticism, which turned toward both Continental thought and a more intense scrutiny of the most serious game around, that of language, was not limited to Yale. Murray Krieger, with whom I had become friendly at the University of Iowa, founded the School of Criticism and Theory at UC Irvine in 1976.

Krieger had been a pioneer supporter of the New Criticism, bringing it to the academy via courses in critical theory in the 1950s.
