Matthew Arnold 
Discourses in America (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) 

Published in 1885, this collection of Arnold’s public addresses given during his 1883-84 American tour consists of ‘Numbers: or the Majority and the Remnant, ‘ ‘Literature and Science, ‘ and ‘Emerson, ‘ in which he judges Emerson as a mediocre poet and philosopher but nevertheless places him among the ‘most distinctly and honourably American of your writers.’

His writings on contemporary society, culture, and religion were instrumental in establishing criticism as an art form.
