Richard Porson (1759-1808) by R. M. Ogilvie
Fellow of Balliol College, Oxford
It was Porson who first brought the necessary discipline and scientific criticism to the study of classical texts. He greatly admired Bentley; he once said that when he was seventeen he knew everything but when he was twenty-four and had read Bentlev he reatised that he knew nothing. Nonetheless, he saw that before using imagination or conjecture a scholar should establish the earliest recoverable state of the text.

8-The Decline of the Left
In Professor Wright Mills's view there b a world-wide collapse of the left today. It is due, he thinks, to the ' establishment ' of the left in Western Europe; to the two-party system monopolising political activities in the U.S.A.; and to the lack of legal basis for any opposition in the U.S.S.R.
