Scrutiny (English spelling)

Japanese: スクルーティニー(英語表記)Scrutiny
Scrutiny (English spelling)
A British quarterly literary critic. Founded in 1932 by FR Leavis, his wife QD Leavis, and LC Knight, the magazine was founded at Cambridge University. It sought precise and rigorous critical standards, and was founded with a sense of mission to improve the nation's culture through the act of literary criticism. Although it sometimes fell victim to self-righteousness and narrow-mindedness, its consistent approach of getting to the heart of a work through close reading of the text and praising the balance between technique and morality contributed to raising the standard of criticism in Britain.

イギリスの文学批評季刊雑誌。1932年,F.R.リービス,夫人のQ.D.リービス,L.C.ナイトらを編集者としてケンブリッジ大学を中心に創刊。精密・厳格な批評的基準を求め,文学批評という行為を通じて,一国の文化を高めようという使命感から出発した。時に独善的で,偏狭に陥る弊はあったが,テキストの精読を通じて,作品の核心に迫り,技法とモラルとの均衡を称揚する一貫した姿勢は,イギリスの批評の水準を向上させるのに貢献した。
