A comment by G. H. Bantock on C. P. Snow's recent Rede Lecture In his lecture Sir Charles Snow deplored the attitude of most Western literary intellectuals towards the growth of modern scientific industrial society. He described the reactions of such men as William Morris , Thoreau, Emerson, and Lawrence as ' screams of horror. This, says Mr. Bantock, betrays a grave misunderstanding of the nature of their protest.
