"What is the best book for those who want to learn how to read English poetry? Were the ancient Greeks passionate and conflicted or just coldly rational (and why should we care)? How should we interpret landscapes, from Pembrokeshire to Papua New Guinea?

Their reflections are an inspirational introduction to a weekly series that will in time cover most of the academic landscape.
