Scope and content

The University, Leeds. - Will look forward to reading Trevelyan's translations of "Antigone" and Theocritus; jokes about one day bringing out an edition of Theocritus under a German name which in fact includes no poems at all. Even more anxious to see Trevelyan's 'Babylonian and Meleagrian' poems ["The Deluge" and "Meleager"?]. He himself is not writing much, except for a work based on lectures given in Cambridge and Bangor, "The Idea of Great Poetry", which he will send when it is out. Very interested to hear of Bridges' new poem. Will look out for 'your philosophical mayor of Scarborough".
