I. A. Richards

    February 26, 1893 – September 7, 1979

    Ivor Armstrong Richards was an influential English literary critic and rhetorician who became a foundational figure in modern literary criticism. His works, particularly those focusing on meaning, literary criticism, and rhetoric, laid the groundwork for New Criticism and introduced the concept of 'practical criticism.' This approach led to the development of close reading practices, considered the beginning of contemporary English literary studies. Richards is widely regarded as one of the founders of modern literary scholarship.
