ALASDAIR MACINTYRE , Lecturer in Philosophy in the University of Leeds, thinks that British intellectuals, except in the very early nineteen-twenties, were never authentic Marxists; and that the possibility of a British Communist Party according to Marx-and not according to Stalin, as it was in the thirties-is not excluded in the future.
A book by Dr. Neal Wood , Communkm and British Intellectuals, has recently been published.

by John Donne
Selected and introduced by Helen Gardner
Reader in Renaissance English Literature
In the University of Oxford
Readers:
Robert Harris and Gary Watson
Helen Gardner writes: 'I suppose no Poems, except Mr. T. S. Eliot's, have been more talked about and explicated in the last forty years than the fifty-four lyrics by Donne that we call the Songs and Sonets.... This is not a critical talk or a talk on literary history but a recital of poems by * great artist, one of the most original writers of lyric poetry in our language.'
