5: Ostia by M. W. FREDERIKSEN , Fellow of Worcester College, Oxford Ostia lay at the mouth of the river Tiber and had a long history as the harbour town of Rome. The excavation of the last sixty years has revealed many of the buildings and housing blocks of the city centre, and fresh excitement has come quite recently when the remains of the first harbour were unearthed during the construction of Rome's new civil aerodrome. The ruins of Ostia are a rival to those of Pompeii and Herculaneum; they have given a clear and detailed picture of the commercial activities, the social life and the style of living in a town at the height of the Roman Empire.

A series of five talks
2: Two Faces of Law
Ϯ by DAVID POCOCK
Lecturer in Indian Sociology in the University of Oxford We are familiar with law as an abstraction, a concept ' brooding upon the face of the waters ' and ordering society from somewhere above, as it were. But does the reflexive abstraction make any sense apart from the social experience which is its matrix and its creation? Dr. Pocock reflects on the relational and systematising aspects of law, as embodied in individual societies.

by PATRICK COWERS
Erik Satie 's music has always given rise to controversy and has excited ecstatic praise from some critics and contempt from others. Patrick Gowers , who has made a special study of Satie criticism, discusses some ideas that recur in it that throw light not only on the composer himself but also his critics.
