Thinking Activity on Matthew Arnold

#Thinking activity: Do you agree with Mathew Arnold's views on detachment, disinterestedness, fallacies like historical and personal, touchstone method and his definition of Poetry?



# Matthew Arnold (1822-1888)was one of the greatest Victorian critic. He was a poet turned as critic..
He was highly moralistic person of his time.
Arnold gives a definition of poetry.
He said, Poetry is a "Criticism of Life"...
This definition also relevant to present time.
So I agree with Arnold's principles of detachment and disinterestedness.
Arnold has expressed his great thoughts and ideas in explicit,vivid and consummate manner..
