M. H. Abrams
Meyer Howard "Mike" Abrams (July 23, 1912 – April 21, 2015), usually cited as M. H. Abrams, was an American literary critic, known for works on romanticism, in particular his book ''The Mirror and the Lamp''. Under Abrams' editorship, the ''Norton Anthology of English Literature'' became the standard text for undergraduate survey courses across the U.S. and a major trendsetter in literary canon formation.
== Early life ==
Abrams was the son of Eastern European Jewish immigrants in Long Branch, New Jersey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Adam Kirsch Pays a 100th Birthday Visit to M. H. Abrams, the Romanticist and Norton Anthology Editor )〕 The son of a house painter and the first in his family to go to college, he entered Harvard University as an undergraduate in 1930. He went into English because, he says, "there weren't jobs in any other profession, so I thought I might as well enjoy starving, instead of starving while doing something I didn't enjoy." After earning his baccalaureate in 1934, Abrams won a Henry fellowship to the University of Cambridge, where his tutor was I.A. Richards. He returned to Harvard for graduate school in 1935 and received his masters' degree in 1937 and his PhD in 1940.
