by Bruce Milder
Professor of Politics
In the University of Leicester
After a stav of six months in Delhi Professor Aliller, while recognising the superficial similarities between political practice in Britain and India, discusses some of the forces leading to the evolution in India of a new political style.

by Joel Hurstfield
Professor of Modern History at University College, London
Professor Hurstfield discusses the contribution of this veteran American historian (who died last year at the age of seventy-eight) to our knowledge of the Elizabethan age, and contrasts his approach to historical biography with the new methods and techniques tried out by younger historians.

by Arthur Hugh Clough (1819-61)
CANTO 1
Produced by Anthony Thwaite
Canto 2: April 24
Amours de Voyage was written in 1849, when Clough was in Rome. It deals, in a series of verse-letters, with two parallel events: Claude's relationship with the Trevellyn family—with Alary, in particular —and the war between the Roman Republic and France. The poem is written for the most part in English hexameters.
