Part 1
by Robert McKenzie
Two books on Walter Bagehot have appeared this year, a biography and a selection from his works. Mr. McKenzie considers especially Bagehot's political opinions, and his view of the English Constitution.
Part 2
by Ian Watt
Samuel Johnson , who was born 250 years ago, is often admired and studied more as a man than a writer; but the close connection between what he was and what he wrote makes him, in Mr. Watt's view, ' the greatest English writer whose work belongs mainly to the category of the literature of experience.
