John Barrell , Fellow of King's College, Cambridge, contrasts this and later works by Gainsborough with his earlier paintings of the 1750s which he considered last week. He relates them to the writings of Goldsmith, Crabbe and Hannah More , and suggests that the differences in the art of the two periods can tell us much about changing social attitudes in 18th-century England.

Lewis Mumford in the first of seven conversations with Malcolm MacEwen, recorded at his home in New England.
The Golden Day for Mumford was the period before the Civil War when a number of indigenous American writers emerged - Fennimore Cooper, Walt Whitman, Herman Melville and Ralph Emerson. Mumford's pioneering study on American literature was written over 50 years ago, preceding his work in the fields of art, architecture, the city and technology.
