Today's episode of The Literary Life is a continuation of our series covering The Mind of the Maker by Dorothy L. Sayers. Angelina, Cindy, and Thomas discuss chapters 6-8 this week, which they acknowledge are probably the most difficult portions of this book so far. Angelina starts off with some questions she has about why chapter six in included and how it fits with other arguments she has already made earlier. Thomas reads and expands on a passage about the autobiographer and his art. Angelina makes a distinction between moral goodness and artistic goodness in works of fiction and art. Cindy highlights the idea of justification and something being “out of true.” Coming up from House of Humane Letters on November 16, 2023, Jennifer Rogers' webinar on Tolkien and The Old English Tradition.

Commonplace Quotes: My friend, the Scottish poet and translator Alastair Reid, carries a lifetime's worth of poems—an entire small library—in his head. “Do you memorize them?” someone asked him once. “No,” he answered gravely. “I remember them.” Christian McEwan, World Enough and Time The book everywhere exhibits the style and temper for which the author was both loved and hated. The essays are full of cheerful energy. The young people would call them ‘bonhomous'. By a bonhomous writer they mean one who seems to like writing and what he writes of, and to assume that his readers will mostly be people he would like. I think that this last assumption is what infuriates them. C. S. Lewis, Image and Imagination If you are not careful…you'll be a genius when you grow up and disgrace your parents. Elizabeth von Arnim, Elizabeth and Her German Garden The Bird and the Tree by Ruth Pitter The tree, and its haunting bird, Are the loves of my heart; But where is the word, the word, Oh where is the art, To say, or even to see, For a moment of time, What the Tree and the Bird must be In the true sublime? They shine, listening to the soul, And the soul replies; But the inner love is not whole, and the moment dies. O give me before I die The grace to see With eternal, ultimate eye, The Bird and the Tree. The song in the living green, The Tree and the Bird– O have they ever been seen, Ever been heard?

Production and Sound Design by Kevin Seaman               MirrorsBy Jorge Luis Borges I have been horrified before all mirrorsnot just before the impenetrable glass,the end and the beginning of that space,inhabited by nothing but reflections, but faced with specular water, mirroringthe other blue within its bottomless sky,incised at times by the illusory flightof inverted birds, or troubled by a ripple, or face to face with the unspeaking surfaceof ghostly ebony whose very hardnessreflects, as if within a dream, the whitenessof spectral marble or a spectral rose. Now, after so many troubling yearsof wandering beneath the wavering moon,I ask myself what accident of fortunehanded to me this terror of all mirrors– mirrors of metal and the shrouded mirrorof sheer mahogany which in the twilightof its uncertain red softens the facethat watches and in turn is watched by it. I look on them as infinite, elementalfulfillers of a very ancient pactto multiply the world, as in the actof generation, sleepless and dangerous. They extenuate this vain and dubious worldwithin the web of their own vertigo.Sometimes at evening they are clouded overby someone's breath, someone who is not dead. The glass is watching us. And if a mirrorhangs somewhere on the four walls of my room,I am not alone. There's an other, a reflectionwhich in the dawn enacts its own dumb show. Everything happens, nothing is rememberedin those dimensioned cabinets of glassin which, like rabbits in fantastic stories,we read the lines of text from right to left. Claudius, king for an evening, king in a dream,did not know he was a dream until the dayon which an actor mimed his felonywith silent artifice, in a tableau. Strange, that there are dreams, that there are mirrors.Strange that the ordinary, worn-out waysof every day encompass the imaginedand endless universe woven by reflections. God (I've begun to think) implants a promisein all that insubstantial architecturethat makes light out of the impervious surfaceof glass, and makes the shadow out of dreams. God has created nights well-populatedwith dreams, crowded with mirror images,so that man may feel that he is nothing morethan vain reflection. That's what frightens us.                         Spanish; trans. Alastair Reid

To mark the publication of Barefoot: The Collected Poems of Alastair Reid (Galileo), this episode is dedicated to the late poet. Alastair Reid was a poet, an essayist, translator and traveller. Born in 1926 in Galloway, he served in the Royal Navy during the Second World War before moving to the US in the early 1950s, where he was published in The New Yorker, the start of a long association with that magazine. In the decades that followed he travelled the world, establishing friendships with two South African poets he translated, Neruda and Borges. Tom Pow, Barefoot's editor, discusses Reid's life and work: what Reid thought of his homeland, his relationships with Borges and Neruda, and how Pow came to know Reid the man and Reid the poet. The SPL wishes to thank The Poetry Archive for granting us permission to feature a performance of Reid reading 'Weathering'.

Shotguns, peacocks, golf, acid. Editor Terry McDonell recounts his 1984 visit, along with George Plimpton, to Hunter S. Thompson's home in Colorado, including never-before-heard archival tape; a poem by Pablo Neruda, translated by Alastair Reid and read by Antonio Gueudinot; and actor Paul Heesang Miller reads WILLIAM WEI, a short story by Amie Barrodale. "Emerging" from EXTRAVAGARIA by Pablo Neruda, translated by Alastair Reid. Translation copyright © 1974 by Alastair Reid. Used by permission of Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

Professor Peter Ackers and Dr Alastair Reid introduced their edited collection of essays challenging traditional narratives of twentieth century British labour history at King’s College London. The book’s essays explore neglected aspects of working class experience and political awareness over the twentieth century - including religious Nonconformity, self-organisation and left libertarianism - and shows how this diversity has been quashed by a narrative focussing on trade unions, nationalisation, class cohesion and secular state-socialism. As both editors pointed out, this re-examination of Labour history comes at a critical point in the fortunes of the modern Labour party, which appears to be facing choices about its intellectual future.

History & Policy Trade Union Forum event: The Future of Trade Unions Notwithstanding a truce during the EU Referendum campaign, the Government's relationship with trade unions has reached rock bottom with more restrictions aimed against them through the new Trade Union Bill 2016. Trade union membership has remained fairly static over recent years and the changing face of work presents new challenges. With this in mind, History & Policy’s Trade Union Forum will be hosting a half-day conference The Future of Trade Unions, where eminent speakers from both academia and trade unions will take stock of how trade unions’ relationship with government has evolved over time, and hypothesise as to where unions should go from here.
