Of all the changes that have taken place in English-language
newspapers during the past quarter-century, perhaps the most
far-reaching has been the inexorable decline in the scope and seriousness
of their arts coverage.
It is difficult to the point of impossibility for the average reader
under the age of forty to imagine a time when high-quality arts criticism
could be found in most big-city newspapers. Yet a considerable number
of the most significant collections of criticism published in the 20th
century consisted in large part of newspaper reviews. To read such books
today is to marvel at the fact that their learned contents were once
deemed suitable for publication in general-circulation dailies.
We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews
published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of
World War II, at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts
criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it
appeared. In those far-off days, it was taken for granted that the critics
of major papers would write in detail and at length about the events they
covered. Theirs was a serious business, and even those reviewers who wore
their learning lightly, like George Bernard Shaw and Ernest Newman, could
be trusted to know what they were about. These men believed in journalism
as a calling, and were proud to be published in the daily press. “So
few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own
end up in journalism,” Newman wrote, “that I am tempted to define
‘journalism’ as ‘a(chǎn) term of contempt applied by writers who are not
read to writers who are.’”
Unfortunately, these critics are virtually forgotten. Neville

Cardus, who wrote for the Manchester Guardian from 1917 until shortly
before his death in 1975, is now known solely as a writer of essays on
the game of cricket. During his lifetime, though, he was also one of
England’s foremost classical-music critics, a stylist so widely admired
that his Autobiography (1947) became a best-seller. He was knighted in
1967, the first music critic to be so honored. Yet only one of his books
is now in print, and his vast body of writings on music is unknown save
to specialists.
Is there any chance that Cardus’s criticism will enjoy a revival?
The prospect seems remote. Journalistic tastes had changed long before
his death, and postmodern readers have little use for the richly
upholstered Vicwardian prose in which he specialized. Moreover, the
amateur tradition in music criticism has been in headlong retreat.
21. It is indicated in Paragraphs 1 and 2 that
[A] arts criticism has disappeared from big-city newspapers.
English-language newspapers used to carry more arts reviews.
