This essay surveys the development of post world war 2 literary criticism in Australia under the influence of imported theory from Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States. Sub-headings include; 'An Australian literary criticism: the 1950s and 1960s,' 'Consolidation and New directions; the 1970s', 'Asserting the Present; the 1980s', and 'Past and Future: the 1990s'. It is particularly interested in recurring themes in Australian criticism around the questions of Nation, Formalism, the Canon, Literary History, Society, identity politics and importation.
