...Cuba, Latin American Communists broke with Moscow. But the most agonized reaction of all came from the Communist parties of Western Europe. In the early 1950s, the Western European parties abandoned their revolutionary tactics and went respectable. Since then, they have been trying, with only a fair amount of success, to convince voters that a Communist government does not necessarily entail a suppression of political opponents or loss of freedom. Dubcek's Czechoslovakia, if only it had lasted, would have been their best advertisement...

...With success, Grandville's pen grew ever more pointed. Relying on a lexicon of readily recognizable symbols (scissors for censorship, sugarloaves for graft, a pear for King Louis Philippe's heavy-jowled face), he fought for a variety of political causes, including a free press. In addition he illustrated La Fontaine's Fables, Gulliver's Travels and Robinson Crusoe, all the time building a memorable cast of hybrid creatures, half human, half animal...

Oddly Anachronistic. Thus, in his three-day visit, the Pope tried to identify Catholicism more effectively with reform and with various efforts to ease the social ills of a poverty-ridden continent. Whatever his success, the Pope was clearly moved by the opportunity. Speaking in accented but accurate Spanish to a crowd of peasants outside Bogota, he cried: "Greetings, greetings to you, campesinos of Colombia.

Good question. In Hang 'Em High, the year's grisliest movie so far, those seeds are tended until they burst into bloody bloom. Fresh from his success in a long series of Italian oaters, Clint Eastwood plays a leathery loner out to clean up a dirty territory. An unauthorized posse mistakes Eastwood for a murderer and decides that he is nooseworthy, but a kindly marshal helps him escape.
