Note to self: Replace current cover with the black hardcover (1954). I think the current version is the paperback cover. czar 01:54, 6 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

Literary criticism truly sounds like the type of topic that is the life of a party.
"The published version of his doctoral dissertation in the humanities, Goodman" Implies that Goodman is the published dissertation.
"made in a 1934 article on aesthetics by the author" maybe better as "made by the author in a 1934 article on aesthetics"
"Goodman's mentor" Mentors, since there's two of them?
"known as the "Chicago School" and affiliated with Richard McKeon and R. S. Crane" The second part of that clause seems grammatically incorrect.
Langrum, Robert (June 14, 1954). "No Final Vision". The New Republic. Vol. 130. pp. 25–26. Is not cited.
James, Mertice M.; Brown, Dorothy, eds. (1955). Goodman, Paul. Structure of literature. p. 365. Has a formatting error.
Spot-checks:
- Rodway, A. E. (1955). "A Critical Technocrat". Essays in Criticism. 5 (1): 55–63. Verifies all claims made.
That's all I have. AryKun (talk) 15:41, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the review! I kept "article on aesthetics by the author" so that the following "who" clause refers to Goodman and not aesthetics. "Goodman's mentor" refers to just McKeon, hence that order. And I've edited the rest. Thanks again. czar 12:32, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
