Includes bibliographical references (pages 174-185) and index.

1. Early Developments: English Literature as a Subject of Study from the Seventeenth Century to the Nineteenth -- 2. 'Barbarian war-cries on every side': John Churton Collins and the Dispute over University English Studies in the fin de siecle -- 3. The University Extension Movement -- 4. 'A novel education': Richard G. Moulton's Inductive Criticism in Extramural Adult Education during the fin de siecle -- 5. Developing a Taste for Literature: Arnold Bennett, T. P.'s Weekly and the Edwardian Clerk -- Coda: The Newbolt Report and University English Studies in the Twentieth Century -- Conclusion.

"The Beginnings of University English: Extramural Study, 1885-1910" draws on previously unseen archival material to explore the innovative and scholarly ways in which English literature was taught to extramural students in England during the fin de siecle. It begins by tracing the development of the subject from 1650 onwards, before looking at the impassioned debates surrounding the introduction of English as an honours degree at Oxford and Cambridge in the 1880s and '90s. The book then examines exactly how the subject was taught in various non-university settings such as novel-reading unions, the University Extension Movement, and informal literary advice columns written by Arnold Bennett for a popular Edwardian newspaper. At a time when the future of the humanities feels increasingly uncertain, this book sheds new light on the modern roots of tertiary-level English teaching.
