This 1867 collection of lectures influenced the Irish literary revival of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Arnold characterizes the Celtic genius as fanciful and poetic, and argues that its contributions to the English national character have been overlooked or underestimated.

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