In 1974, to mark The Edinburgh Academy's 150th anniversary, alumnus Magnus Magnusson released The Clacken and the Slate, a book which painted a picture of a leading educational establishment. This bold new history, released in the school's 200th year, revisits and expands upon Magnusson's account to tell a more far-reaching, more complex story.
An elegant, revealing portrait of a remarkable family that helped to shape the politics, arts and sciences of modern Britain.
R. S. Thomas is recognised globally as one of the major poets of the twentieth century. Such detailed attention as has been paid to the religious dimensions of his work has, however, largely limited itself to such matters as his obsession with the 'absent God', his appalled fascination with the mixed cruelty and wonder of a divinely created world, his interest in the world-view of the 'new physics', and his increasingly heterodox stance on spiritual matters. What has been largely neglected is his central indebtedness to key features of the 'classic' Christian tradition. This book concentrates on one powerful and compelling example of this, reading Thomas's great body of religious work in the light of the three days that form the centre of the Gospel narrative; the days which tell of the death, entombment and resurrection of Christ.
