...there's more. John W. Loofbourow interviews the Poets' Theatre personified in an enlightening dialogue marred only by a pedantic reference to Latin drama in the Elizabethan universities. Of 21 or so drawings by Joyce Reopel, Kaffe Fassett, Zero Mostel, Arthur Polonsky, Lynn Schroeder, Jane Nichols, John Wilson, and Renzo Grazzini, more kind words might be said, but that would require another review...
...Carmelites); to intellectual battles of the past (Paul Hindemith's The Harmony of the World, an opera about the astronomer Kepler). Last week two more noteworthy operas held the stage in East Berlin and Naples.

He was always prepared, Giuseppe assured his parents, but Professor Renzo Modugno, a crippled war veteran, twisted the questions so he couldn't possibly answer. Last week, when the semester's grades were announced, Giuseppe heard that he had flunked his math. To make matters worse, Professor Modugno humiliated him by announcing that even the failing grade was higher than he deserved. Giuseppe walked...
