Title: Shakespeare and German students Abstract: 'Tell me how you deal with Shakespeare and I tell you who you are'. This maxim which is a variation of the well-known saying 'Tell me with whom you converse and I shall tell you who you are', is calculated to stress the curious nature of a great work of art, particularly so, I feel, of Shakespeare's great dramatic work, in that it threatens to unmask the critic's prejudices, and to detect his shortcomings and limitations, by confronting him with his own interpretation, or, to put it metaphorically 'to hoist the Shakespearian enginer with his own critical petard'.

Title: Comprehensive education Abstract: Before commenting at any length upon the practicality of Comprehensive Education, I feel that a brief recapitulation of the Educational scene before and immediately after the last war would 'perhaps be helpful. At the outbreak of war, public education in England had a clear tripartite organisation: Infants, Elementary and Secondary. From the first to the second there was automatic transfer, but parents had a reasonably free choice as between one elementary school and another in their neighbourhood. Entry into the third form of education, however, depended upon what was known as 'The Scholarship Examination'. If a child were successful, the parents were given a short list of secondary schools serving their area, and they were free to state their preference, though this did not necessarily ensure entry to a particular school. That depended on the number of applications as against the number of places available. Hence some secondary schools were able further to select their entrants. This happened at the tender age of eleven years.
