Abstract
THE Professor of Poetry at the University of Oxford, Dr. T. Herbert Warren, President of Magdalen College, gave a public lecture on March 2 on the subject of “Poetry and Science.” He began by quoting his predecessor Matthew Arnold, who wrote on New Year's Day, 1882: “If I live to be eighty, I shall probably be the only person left in England who reads anything but newspapers and scientific publications.”
