Produced by D. G. Bridson
The Three Dialogues that make up Dean Swift's Poltte Conversation are intended to give satirical samples of the fashionably affected speech of the time. The cliches and catch-phrases that they retail, however, make up a fascinating study of conversational usage in the Augustan Age.

Bloch's Sacred Service was written at
Roveredo Capriasca, near Lake Lugano, during 1932-34, and the first performance was given at Turin in February 1934 under the composer himself. Bloch has said: ' The Service is a setting of Hebrew texts used in the Reform Temples of America..... These texts embody the essence of Israel's aspirations and its message to the world.'

Talk by Ian Henderson , Professor of Systematic Theology in the University of Glasgow
Karl Barth 's interests have not been confined to theology. His admiration for Mozart, his sympathetic approach to Rousseau, the letters which he wrote in the early 1940s when living only a few thousand yards from the German frontier and which summoned Christians everywhere to resist Hitler, and his present attitude to Communism are among the topics discussed by Professor Henderson.

by Lord Beveridge
Lord Beveridge talks about Gul-badan Begam , the daughter of Babur, Mogul conqueror of India, and Bibi, a Musu'man woman who married an Eng'ishman, William Augustus Brooke. Although these women lived in different centuries, Gul-badan Begam in the sixteenth century and Bibi Brooke in the eighteen'h century, both are remarkable for their love of writing at a time when women in India had little opportunity for self-expression.
