English
  literature at Glasgow. He had already made a reputation as an acute critic and a successful lecturer, and his
influence
  at Glasgow was very marked. He visited the United States in 1865, and in 1882 he wrote the article on American literature for the ninth edition of the Encyclopcedia Britannicaan article which is a good example of his pungent (sometimes unduly pungent)
