  • 1 REITH LECTURES 1954: Britain and the Tide of World Affairs
    REITH LECTURES 1954: Britain and the Tide of World Affairs Oliver Franks Lecture 1: Britain and the Tide of World Affairs 1 TRANSMISSION: 7 November 1954 - Home Service These lectures give me a chance to talk about some opinions which have formed themselves in my mind about Britain and its future, opinions that have come to me mainly as a result of my tour of duty as British Ambassador in Washington. I was there for four-and-a-half years, half the time since the end of the Second World War. I was in continuous contact with the American Administration and the American people, as I explained and advocated British policies and actions. In return, American views and feelings were continuously impressed upon me. This life of incessant discussion and argument made me think afresh about a great many things: in particular, it caused me to reflect on Britain. I encountered such a variety of views on where the tide of world affairs was taking us. Some of the judgements were pessimistic, some were optimistic, most were friendly, but nearly all were different from my own assumptions. I was forced to try to think out my own position more clearly. And I have gone on with this attempt since I came home and resumed my ordinary life. This is the origin of the opinions I want to put before you. They claim no authority: they express no official view. But I believe them to be true and their subject is important. I should like to persuade you of their truth and urgency.

  • A Runaway World Edmund Leach Lecture 1: Men and Nature
    REITH LECTURES 1967: A Runaway World Edmund Leach Lecture 1: Men and Nature TRANSMISSION: 12 November 1967 – Radio 4 Men have become like gods. Isn’t it about time that we understood our divinity? Science offers us total mastery over our environment and over our destiny, yet instead of rejoicing we feel deeply afraid. Why should this be? How might these fears be resolved? In the last analysis fear is always fear of the unknown, the threat of confusion. But this threat has many faces which alter as we change our talk. At one level, in public affairs, we call it the problem of law and order’; at another we see it as ‘class struggle’ or racial violence’ or ‘the ill discipline of youth’; but deeper still, in our private feelings, we worry about attitudes —the problems which are conjured up by words like ‘detachment ‘, ‘objectivity’, ‘alienation’. All these expressions share a common element, a seedbed of fear: that common element is separation. It is all part of a game which we were taught as children, the trick of language which takes people apart and puts them in their proper place. By using names we can put each of the countless things in the world into its proper box, separate, by itself. Living things are different from dead things, animals are different from plants, men from apes, adults from children, white men from black men, workers from bosses, myself from others. Words order our experience by keeping things apart. But this kind of order quickly leads to a sense of helplessness: for what am I but yet another single, lonely, isolated thing at the mercy of all the rest? But if we were not human and helpless, we should be divine and omnipotent.

  • The Language Web Jean Aitchison Lecture 4: a Web of Words
    REITH LECTURES 1996: The Language Web Jean Aitchison Lecture 4: A Web of Words TRANSMISSION: 27 February 1996 – BBC Radio 4 Dean Farrar, a respected 19th century intellectual, once eavesdropped on some apple pickers. “I once listened for a long time to the conversation of three peasants who were gathering apples among the boughs of an orchard. And as far as I could conjecture, the whole number of words they used did not exceed 100,” he guessed. They managed with this low number, he suggested, because “the same coarse expletives recurred with a horrible frequency in the place of every single part of speech.” Dean Farrar, like numerous others, grossly underestimated the number of words known by native speakers of English, or any language. Words are the topic of today’s lecture. The Language Web is the title of all these lectures and the human word store, with its multitude of links, is perhaps the most truly web-like of all aspects of language - even though up till recently both the size and the importance of the internal dictionary, or mental lexicon, has been underestimated. A false but popular view is that the size of a person’s lexicon is about two-thirds of Shakespeare’s vocabulary whose plays contain around 30,000 different words. But far more words exist now than in Shakespeare’s time and many speakers probably know twice as many as he did. An educated native speaker of English knows at least 50,000 words, according to our best guestimates. The word “know” refers to “potentially active vocabulary”, that is, words which could be used spontaneously, even though words such as igloo, gladioli, or trombone, might occur only occasionally.

  • Radio's War Lifeline News New Creative Radio Formats
    1940s Radio’s War With the television service closed for the duration, it was radio’s war and the BBC nearly lost it in the opening skirmishes. Listeners wrote in to complain about the new Home Service, which had replaced the National and Regional programme services. There was criticism of too many organ recitals and public announcements. But the BBC had some secret weapons waiting in the wings. Colonel (‘I don’t mind if I do’) Chinstrap and Mrs (‘Can I do yer now, sir?’) Mopp were just of the two famous characters in Tommy Handley’s It’s That Man Again (ITMA) team. The comedian attracted 16 million listeners each week to the programme. This, and other popular comedy shows like Hi, Gang!, boosted morale during the war. Vera Lynn’s programme Sincerely Yours (dismissed by the BBC Board of Governors with the words: "Popularity noted, but deplored.") won her the title of "Forces’ Sweetheart”. In 1940 the Forces programme was launched for the troops assembling in France. The lighter touch of this new programme was a great success with both the Forces and audiences at home. After the war it was replaced by the Light Programme which was modelled on the Forces Programme. Distinguished correspondents, including Richard Dimbleby, Frank Gillard, Godfrey Talbot and Wynford Vaughan- Thomas, helped to attract millions of listeners every night with War Report, which was heard at the end of the main evening news. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets…we shall never surrender.
