A critical study by JAMES AITCHISON of themes which recur in Muir's poetry and which haunted him throughout his career
Then shut your eyes and see, Sleep on and do not wake
Till there is movement in the lake,
And the club-headed water-serpents break
In emerald lightnings through the slime,
Making a mark on time. Producer STEWART CONN

with Paul Scofield

Though with their high wrongs
I am struck to the quick,
Yet with my nobler reason
'gainst my fury
Do I take part: the rarer action is
In virtue than in vengeance

Scene: a ship at sea, then an enchanted island

A monthly series of discussion programmes
1: New Pressures on CapitalismLabour groups with strong bargaining power are perhaps only one of a number of organised interest groups waiting to challenge the assumptions on which the prosperity of western societies has depended for the last quarter of a century. At the same time, doubts about our ability to deal with new international forces, like the multi-national company, and about the capacity of current technology to cope with new constraints on raw materials for industry, suggest the need for a reassessment of the future of the capitalist system.
