Reading for Pleasure

It was out of politeness, really, that I came across it.

Part One [Part 1 0:00:00] Lee: This is Jon Shanklin, interviewed by Chris Eldon Lee, on the 29 th of November 2013. Jon Shanklin, Part 1. Shanklin: Jonathan Shanklin, born 1953, September the 29 th , in Wrexham, Denbighshire. [Part 1 0:00:18] Lee: Oh right? North Wales? Shanklin: North Wales. [Part 1 0:00:20] Lee: I live in Shrewsbury, so I know. Shanklin: I was in Shrewsbury in September actually. [Part 1 0:00:24] Lee: What, professionally? Shanklin: Amateurly because I am also a botanist. In fact I have just been appointed the Co-recorder for Cambridgeshire and there was a Recorders’ conference in the Gateway. [Part 1 0:00:39] Lee: Would you say your father was an educated man? Shanklin: Yes. [Part 1 0:00:42] Lee: Tell me about him. Shanklin: Dad was a consultant geologist at McAlpines, the big construction company, and so he would go off prospecting all over the place. I remember when I was a child he had several visits to South Africa, when he was away for months at a time. Probably rather like me, going to the Antarctic for months at a time, repaying the compliment, if you like. My mum was also a geologist, but mostly a mother, but they were both members of the local geological society. Dad at one time was a president of it, and they had regular excursions, and as children myself and my brother would be packed into the bus which would go down lanes that were very very narrow. -

The Revival of the Satiric Spirit in Contemporary British Fiction1
The Revival of the Satiric Spirit in Contemporary British Fiction1 Luis Alberto Lázaro Lafuente University of Alcalá Satiric novels have traditionally been regarded as a minor form by many critics and scholars. Aristotle had already referred to the satirists as "the more trivial" poets who wrote about the actions of meaner~persons, in stark contrast to the "more serious-minded" epic poets who represented noble actions and the lives of noble people (1965: 35-36). This attitude has persisted throughout many centuries in the history of English literature. Even though satire enjoyed its golden age in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, especially with the poetry of such distinguished writers as Dryden or Pope, satiric compositions in prose did not really achieve the same high position2• When with time the novel became a well• established genre, it was mainly naturalistic fiction and psychological stories that commonly attained a prominent status among the literary critics, whereas the comic and satiric novel, with a few exceptions, was relegated to a status of popular prose on the fringe of the canon, or even outside it. Indeed, in the twentieth century, several prestigious authors have offered a rather gloomy picture of the state of novelistic satire. Robert C. Elliott, for instance, said in 1960 that the great literary figures of this century were not "preeminently satirists" (1970: 223); and Patricia Meyer Spacks, in her artide "Some Reflections on Satire" first published in 1968, even stated that satiric novel s by authors such I Some ideas oí this paper have already appeared in my essay "El espíritu satírico en la novela británica contemporánea: Menipo redivivo", included in the volume edited by Fernando Galván Már• genes y centros en la literatura británica actual. -

When gambling fails, Timothy turns to embezzlement, but it's the lesser offence of helping himself to some strangely aromatic tobacco that propels him up the motorway and into bed with the Chief Constable's wife. The Chief Constable has just survived charges of bribery and perjury and is not too concerned that his efforts to dispose of Timothy involve false imprisonment, breaking and entering, and a spot of GBH. It is only when the Chief tries to frame his old adversary, the upright Miss Midden, that things begin to go seriously wrong as his underhand ploy opens up the way to spectacular mayhem.

The Ozone Hole SCIENCE BRIEFING It’s nearly 30 years since the discovery of the Ozone Hole drew world attention to the impact of human activity on the global environment. Why is the ozone layer important? Is there a hole over the Arctic? The ozone layer is the Earth’s natural sunscreen that protects humans, plants Unlike Antarctica, which is a continent surrounded by oceans, the Arctic and animals by filtering out harmful UV-B radiation. In the 1970s concern is an ocean surrounded by mountainous continents. This means that the about the effect of man-made chemicals, especially chlorofluorocarbons stratospheric circulation is much more irregular.
