Kadar's "respectability" finally won the regime an unchallenged seat at the United Nations. Last week from Rome, Pope Paul VI sent a message to Hungarian bishops announcing the expectation of "good news," a hint that Josef Cardinal Mindszenty may soon be allowed by the Reds to leave the U.S. legation, where he has been holed up for almost seven years under 24-hour watch by Budapest police. After the revolution of 1848 swept the Continent, Hungarian Patriot Lajos Kossuth said that many people thought his countrymen were the "reddest republicans in Europe." Today, Hungary's people...
...this family of churches together. One is a superb order of worship: the Book of Common Prayer, used in different versions by different Anglican churches but always echoing the symmetry of ritual and the stately, pure English prose of the reformed liturgies composed by Thomas Cranmer for King Edward VI. Cranmer's 1549 Prayer Book has had almost as great an influence on English prose as the King James Bible, and its stately collects remain one of man's finest efforts to address his Creator reverently. Last Sunday's collect, for example...
...Anglican Communion also has a living link: every church represented at Toronto is in communion with the see founded in A.D. 597 by St. Augustine of Canterbury. After a centuries-long struggle for precedence between the two sees of Canterbury and York, Pope Innocent VI (1352-62) made the Archbishop of Canterbury Primate of All England. The Archbishop of York was granted the lesser title Primate of England; the Most Rev. and Rt. Hon. Donald Coggan is the incumbent. Primacy does not make Canterbury head of his church (the Queen is). Yet as first bishop of England, he ranks...
...what one critic called "Shakehall's Henry VI," the emphasis is not on rhetoric but on clarity, with speeches cut to their meaningful core and with action bared to the bone of violence. When writing bridge passages and interpolations, Co-Adapter Barton went back to Shakespeare's own source books-the Chronicles of Holinshed, Hall and Grafton. The Observer's Kenneth Tynan observed that the production "managed to reanimate petrified forests of genealogy so that within half an hour one knows which cousin is on whose uncle's brother's side." Barton, whose past efforts...
Some of the works display the influence of African and Asian art, and some seem to combine the thick, blunt lines of Gothic woodcuts with the vi brant tendrils of art nouveau. Com pared to the primitive force of some expressionists, Heckel's forms have been described as "lyrical and refined." But taken alone, their chief characteristic is a searing fury-a world of distorted faces and figures as throbbing as Van Gogh's and as pain-racked as Munch...
