by THE REV. CANON J. H. JACQUES
Heidegger is not well known in Britain as a thinker, and is often thought of as the German philosopher to end all German philosophers — tortuous, pedantic and wholly airborne amid abstractions with capital letters. Canon Jacques argues that this is a very unfair picture; and that Heidegger's re-interpretation of early Greek thought is shrewdly relevant to present human needs.

by Frank Harrison

In the second of two talks Frank Harrison considers the significant changes in European musical conventions and repertoire betweeo 1300 and 1450. His musical illustrations Include popular, courtly, and military music.
(Second broadcast)
(First of a series of programmes of music in medieval England: November 2)
