Melville was as fascinated as any other nineteenth-century romantic by the variety and beauty of the natural world, but he was also obsessed with what lay behind reality. ' I am intent upon the essences of things ... that which is beneath the seeming.' Moby Dick is the greatest of all his novels and probably the greatest single work in American literature.

by JOHN STEVENS
Lecturer in English in the University of Cambridge
Music formed an important part of the standard medieval university education, but not for the kind of reasons we should be most likely to tive. It was valued because it trained the mind in abstract speculation. Behind the sonorous glory of medieval composition lies the belief ' sounds pass quickly away but numbers remain.'
This talk is among a number devised to accompany the current series of music Programmes from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. Nicholas of Cusa, by Gordon Leff : October 26
