All Bells in Paradise

This gentle yet uplifting carol was commissioned for the Choir of Kings College, Cambridge, and was first performed during the 2012 Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols. Rutters gift for melody is in evidence throughout the work, with a sense of hushed awe leading to moments of glorious optimism. The text, written by the composer, is inspired by the fifteenth-century Corpus Christi Carol.
Poets' Grammar

First published in 1958, Poets’ Grammar treats of a few grammatical forms and inflexions as they function in the work of some English poets and dramatists. For this purpose, the author is less concerned with the primary meaning of the word Grammar, as given by Shorter Oxford Dictionary, namely “that department of the study of language which deals with its inflexional forms or their equivalents with the rules for employing these correctly”, than with that subordinate meaning of the word, as defined by the same dictionary, namely “an individual's manner of using grammatical forms.” The book discusses important themes like tense in medieval pageant and poem; pronoun and verb in Shakespeare; Elizabethan and Jacobean ‘personal’ insights; Shelley and the future tense; and preposition in poetry and translation. This is an interesting read for scholars and students of English literature and English poetry.
Arden / D'Arcy Plays: 1

This collection brings together some of the best and most frequently performed plays by John Arden and Margaretta D'Arcy whose collaboration stems from the political years of the Sixties The Business of Good Government is a nativity play which develops a sense of a disappearing community; Ars Longa Vita Brevis is composed out of children's games and The Royal Pardon tells the story of the adventures of a group of strolling players who fall in with a deserter from the war in Flanders. Other plays in this collection such as Little Gray Home in the West and The Vandaleur's Folly arise from the highly charged political arena of the 1970s in Ireland. Arden and D'Arcy have been consistently interested in using drama to extend the very boundaries of national identity and human freedom.
