...language has a literature worth reading, Harvard should teach it. If a language is interesting structurally or historically, Harvard should teach it; very properly, Harvard has a course in Gothic, which has only one extant text, because it is important linguistically. If a language is useful for scholarly research, Harvard should teach it; for example, Dutch (which Harvard doesn't teach) is invaluable for students of Fine Arts. And Harvard should teach living languages, so that its graduates may communicate with other men. This last is clearly the broadest and loosest criterion.

Christ Church in New Haven and Trinity Church in Princeton (both off-campus Spiscopal churches) will serve as sets, providing Gothic atmosphere similar to that of Saint John's Chapel here in Cambridge.

Even in Shakespeare's plot, Kurosawa has condensed detail, juggled scenes, chucked the sentimental excrescences-among them, thank heaven, the soap-operatic murder of poor little Baby Macduff. Kurosawa's intention is plainly to hack off the Gothic foliage of Shakespeare's fancy and compress his tale into that traditional form of Japanese theater known as noh. As in those vast dance-dramas of destiny, Kurosawa's actors run to the grand mythological gesture, speak in noble recitative, and are accompanied by a queer, irrelevant commentary...
