The critic should be realise as completely and as sensitively as possible the experience that is given in words. According to him, " the business of literary critic is to attain a particular Complan tense of response a critic should respond with strict relevance and then developed into commentry and ground against premature generalizing."

Leavies defend his practice by pointing out that his critical as exemptions are employed in his work he says if I have avoided anything to be journalies it was because of basins to pleasure to be of any use. 

He believes in working in terms of create judgement and particular analysis. And think of criticism as comparative effort in terms of distinguished text with flow of critic. As a critic you should see criticism as cooperative method. You also know about other writing.

To reduce principal as abstract statement take away the the biceps size of criticism in general and make it in a way clinzee. Levies believe in in democratic his principal and thought in state them.
