René Wellek’s History of Modern Criticism remains the "gold standard" because it doesn't just list critics—it tells the story of the human mind trying to make sense of art. While modern critics might find his views too "Eurocentric" or "Formalist," no one can deny the sheer intellectual labor he poured into these volumes.
Many volumes are available for "digital borrowing" through the Open Library project.
