Abstract
This article offers a survey of recent Hardy criticism (focussing on books by Jo Devereux, David Musselwhite, Edward Neill, Andrew Radford and T. R. Wright and a collection of essays edited by Tim Dolin and Peter Widdowson). It sets these in the context of how Hardy studies have developed over the last twenty years or so and suggests a number of directions that future research might take.
