Eight studies by ARTHUR MIZENER
Professor of English at Cornell University
4: The Refined Conscience: Henry James
Henry James is the first writer to bring the excessively idealistic American imagination successfully to terms with the real world. In The Ambassadors, his intelligent but provincial American hero is confronted by European life, and rises triumphantly to the occasion for understanding and appreciation it offers him. without losing the almost Puritan firmness of his refined New England conscience.
Readings by JAMES DYRENFORTH
Produced by Howard Smith

Fission and Energy
Two talks by GORDON LEFF
Lecturer in Medieval History in the University ot York
2: Nicholas of Cusa Bishop, cardinal, natural scientist, philosopher, diplomatist, Nicholas of Cusa was perhaps the most many-sided and unusual figure in late medieval thought. His attempt to harness the intellectual explosion of the fifteenth century was regarded as more or less eccentric. But the eccentricity may be more superficial than it seems. and the originality is rooted deep in tradition.
These talks are among a number devised to accompany the current series of music programmes from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance 'The sheep hath paid for all' by Peter Burke : November
