The noble, silent men, scattered here and there, each in his department; silently thinking, silently working; whom no Morning Newspaper makes mention of They are the salt of the earth. A country that has few or none of these is in a bad way.
The Reminiscences is one of the more immediate and accessible of the writings of Thomas Carlyle. a work of intense personal and professional self-analysis, which was first prompted by the death in 1832 of Carlyle's much-respected father. In this illustrated talk, to mark this year's Carlyle Centenary, Dr Ian Campbell of the University of Edinburgh examines some of the tensions that were provoked in Carlyle's life and work by the memory of his father, and by the severe contrast between the simple family home in Ecclefechan and the brilliant London world of the ' Sage of Chelsea '.

' Zip! Walter Lippmann wasn't brilliant today' - sang a loquacious stripper in Rodgers and Hart's 1940 musical Pal Joey, assuming the audience would recognise the name of America's most celebrated political columnist and laugh at her daring to find him less than inspired. But since his death in 1974 this towering figure - presidential confidant, public philosopher, journalist extraordinary - has been plummeting towards oblivion, to be retrieved by Ronald Steel in his biography Waiter Lippmann and the American Century, which Esmond Wright, Director of the Institute of United States Studies at London University, examines in this talk.
