Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} From James to Eliot by Boris Ford Boris Ford. Richard Boris Ford (1 July 1917 in – 19 May 1998), [1] [2] known as Boris Ford , was a literary critic, writer, and educationist. Contents. Early life [ edit | edit source ] The son of an Indian Army officer, Brigadier Geoffrey Noel Ford, and his Russian wife Ekaterina, [3] Ford was a chorister at King's College, , eventually becoming head chorister. [4] He was then educated at Gresham's School, and through his English master there, Denys Thompson, was introduced to F.R. Leavis under whom he studied at Downing College, Cambridge. [2] [3] Even before graduating, Ford's essay on Wuthering Heights was published by Leavis in Scrutiny in March 1939. Although he came to share many of Leavis's ideas, Ford could not follow Leavis in making "exclusion and exclusivity major features of [Leavis's] critical policy". [2] Ford had an increasingly stormy relationship with Leavis and his wife Q. D.: at one point, Q. D. wrote to him "Mrs Leavis informs Mr Ford that he is no longer an acceptable visitor to her house. Any communications from him will not be answered." [1] Career [ edit | edit source ] After Cambridge, Ford joined the army, and from 1940 until the end of the Second World War was the officer commanding the Middle East School of Artistic Studies. [1] He then became chief editor and director of the Army Bureau of Current Affairs (ABCA). So critical of Britain were ABCA's seminars addressed to officers and men that Ford attracted the attention of MI5. Indeed, Ford believed that the Labour Party came to power in 1945 as a result of ABCA's democratizing influence. [3] In 1951 Ford became information officer of UNESCO's technical assistance board. In 1953 he was invited by W. E. Williams, who had been a colleague at ABCA, to edit a multi-authored seven-volume Pelican Guide to English Literature (1954–61; revised, 1982–8). This was indebted in many senses to Leavis, who, when he closed Scrutiny in 1953, remarked bitterly that Ford had "approached my main people", and considered that some of the Pelican Guide essays were derivative. Nonetheless, the series broke new ground: notably the first volume, The Age of Chaucer , included a 200-page anthology of non-Chaucerian medieval poetry in original texts, so introducing early English poetry to several contemporary poets. [3] Ford became Associated Rediffusion's first head of schools broadcasting (1957–58), during which time he persuaded to compose his church opera Noye's Fludde for a series of programmes. [2] However, Ford was dismissed before the opera was produced, on the grounds that Ford was "not suitable for the post". [5] However, other accounts suggest that his dismissal came following his objection to the broadcast of unsuitable advertisements between programmes, [3] and to the cancellation of school broadcasts to accommodate afternoon horse racing in the schedules. [6] In 1957–8 Ford was Education Secretary to the Cambridge University Press. [3] He then became Professor of Education and Director of the Institute of Education at from 1960 to 1963, when he became Professor of Education at Sussex University (1963–73). At Sussex, with the support of Asa Briggs, he helped establish a music department in 1971 with Donald Mitchell as visiting Professor of Music. While at Sussex, Ford was Dean at the School of Cultural and Community Studies (1963–71). After leaving Sussex in 1973, Ford became Professor of Education at Bristol until 1982. [2] The Pelican Guide to English Literature series was followed by the even more ambitious The Cambridge Guide to the Arts in Britain (in nine volumes, 1988–91). [2] Family [ edit | edit source ] He was married twice. With his first wife, Noreen, he had two daughters and a son, and was the step father to Noreen's daughter by her first marriage. He was the step father of a daughter of his second wife, Inge. [1] From James to Eliot. ThriftBooks: Read More, Spend Less.Dust jacket quality is not guaranteed. Reviews.
