Ephemera Critica: Or Plain Truths About Current Literature is a book written by John Churton Collins and published in 1902. The book is a collection of essays that provide a critical analysis of contemporary literature and literary trends. Collins, a prominent literary critic of his time, offers his opinions on a wide range of topics, including the works of famous authors such as Tennyson, Browning, and Swinburne, as well as the state of literary criticism and the role of the critic.In the book, Collins argues that literature should be judged on its own merits, rather than on the popularity of the author or the prevailing literary fashion. He also emphasizes the importance of literary criticism as a means of promoting good writing and fostering a healthy literary culture. The essays in the book are written in a clear and concise style, making them accessible to a wide range of readers.Overall, Ephemera Critica is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of literary criticism or the state of literature in the early 20th century. Collins’ insights and opinions are still relevant today, and his book remains a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the art of writing and criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
