To me it feels more like an "essay" in the older, more literal sense of simply exploring an idea. I think he's just kind of ruminating around the model of "what survives is good but not everything good survives." He ends up bringing it around to the purpose and responsibility of criticism in light of this, which he finds is to elevate the good but not necessarily push down the bad. I think this is his biggest concern here? He doesn't make a big deal about it so it's easy to miss, or I might be wrong. |
