The rewriting of prose texts in iambics is perhaps primarily a way of reading them with deliberation; the texts here - favourites of course - have much in common. Those from Lampedusa posit the possibility of extraordinary events. Similarly, 'Sylvie' depends on extremities of tenderness exemplified by the scene in the Othys section when the narrator and Sylvie, descending the stairs, stage a re-enactment. And in the scene from Dali's novel Hidden Faces there is something in common...

Daphnis and Chloe is the most acclaimed of the early Greek novels. Its popularity is enhanced by the splendid illustrations it has generated - from High Victorian to Bonnard and Maillol, and of course musically in the ballet of Ravel. There are numerous translations of the prose text of Longus, but the reader may sense that something is missing, that some poetic charm in the original has been lost. Accordingly, John Watson has devised a metrical version in which, it is hoped, the ...

Philo lived in Alexandria between the end of the first century BC and the middle of the first century AD. He left many writings. He is famous for his teachings on the logos, so close to the New Testament doctrine of John and Paul, to inevitably give rise to questions about the nature of such similarities.I read “Philo and the New Testament” by John Watson many years ago and found it very interesting, precious to introduce to Philo’s thought.Contributions like Philo’s...

In the book, Watson provides valuable insight and step-by-step techniques to help hunters improve their tracking skills, precision, and overall succes...

Here are over 60 photographs from the earliest years of Exeter University in the 1950s. Photographs of the City and the splendid Devon countryside including Dartmoor and the Coast are also included. With the University now celebrating its Silver Jubilee 60th year it seemed a good time to distribute them as well as extracts from a written diary and digitised frames from old films.

Many of Schubert's six hundred songs were composed quickly, and often in the midst of of a gathering of friends loudly revelling or performing other music. Sometimes that remarkable facility would be exercised while walking in company through the woods round Vienna. John Watson has composed a sequence of scenes from this prodigious working life - sometimes in Schubert's own voice, sometimes in the voices of critics or friends. Here are glimpses - forming a song cycle, as it were - depictin...

The story of Tristan is well known in the Western tradition of Romance. Few have not heard of Wagner's opera and the love elixir which Tristan and Iseut drink by accident. The story is already well established in the early medieval period, where there are several competing manuscripts, most of them incomplete for various reasons. John Watson has revisited these medieval origins and achieved a synthesis, a complete Tristan. Here are the sea voyages, the ill-fated love potion, the black or w...
