‘MADARIAGA AS A
.MAN OF LETTERS

Leading Aoma So Specialist Also
Connoisseur of Spanish
Literature.

1s TYPICAL E EUROPEAN,

(Specially inisbuted by Dr. Gillett)

It will be a pleasure for me to say a
few words about Professor de Madariaga.
I must confess, however, that of one-
half (or perhaps not quite so much) of
the man,‘ I know. very little; I refer to

‘that -half described in your invitation
card as “Chief of the .Disdrmament Sec-

- tion of the Secretariat of the League of
Nations.” | Of, Madatiaga as a man of
letters, a poet in his own right and a
most distinguished critic, I. can‘ speak ‘with
more. assM@¥attce. ‘erhaps ‘he is not very
well known in this country, nor even very
well outside England. England, how-
ever, has taken him to her heart and will
know him-as the first’ incumbent of. the
newly founded chair of Spanish Studies at
Oxford. _In Spain he will be better
known in the near future, as well. His
absence from Madrid, far from the
literary cenacles that divide the literary
empire of the capital, accounts for that.
But there is little doubt that we. are
dealing with a major figure in the world
of letters.

Mr. de Madariaga is a “Saniteni. He
comes as close as any I have eyer known
to being a representative European. Let
us define -our terms and not to. make
them too. stringent—this. simple one may
do for the time being: “A European is
someone who-can- understand and inter-
pret at least one of the great continental

cultures of Europe, France, Germany,

Even measured by that standard there
are not many. “Europeans.” But among
a long line of distinguished mediators
between the English-speaking world and
Spain, he holds a foremost place.

Spain Realistic, Yet Romantici.

. Spain, as you know, is the home-.of
realism. Yet the same country is steeped,
not in the meretrigious “romantic”. gla-
mour of populaf . but in an
atmosphere of delicaté, sensitive poetic
fancy. “No country has more beautiful
popular poetry than Spain, and few have
been able to feel it, interpret it, translate
it even, more felicitously than Mr, de
Madariaga. But he is able to see and
face facts. Last night I picked up his
volume of essays entitled “Shelley and
Calderon,” and his dual personality was
clearly apparent. The short, almost bald

Cissy Centipede, on being told what
was before her, replied by letter: ,
“My dear Mrs, Lot:

“For two years you have abused me
whenever you saw fit, and yet have I
ever complained? No. I have submit-
ted with all the grace possible to my in-
sect nature. And now, this .latest im-
position—shall I rebel? No. . Again, no.
T: shall comply, but, Mrs. Lot, you have
given me unrivalled opportunity to get
my Rrrrevenge. : :

Aha, Mrs. Lot, I.-shall_smash.-your
stately Pillar with all my force. You
shall see it in pieces; in a most unarchi-
tectural attitude, thus :”-

"Tsaulers Still Unbeaten

“ The Seniors again demonstrated their

Sophomores, 6-5, even when their team
lacked-two-members,Five—Seniors’ held

‘|'the full-sized Sopohomore team at bay.

The poor Dark Blue seems tobe tast-
ing the dregs this year. Taylor did her
best - for them, but without proper sup-
port she ‘c wuld not stop the five fight-
ing Seniors. Bruere was the outstanding
player for 1928, raging all over the pool
in her effort to help fill the places of the
missing two. The line-up was: 1928—
H. Guiterman***,. H Tuttle**, M. Gail-
lard, A. Bruere*, M. Pettit, 1930—E.
Grant, H. L. Taylor, F. Pettust#*, 1,

Seligman, 5

1929 vs. 1931, January 19. :

Another triumph for. the Freshmen.,
They ducked their sister class 6,3 on
Boyd and Wills .were the
mainstays of the Junior team but they
could not prevail against the fast swim-
ming of Burrows, Asher’s guarding,
and the sure shooting of Libby Baer.
The ‘freshmen’ fought hard every mo-
ment, and they seem to'be developing a
champion team’ closely resembling the
Seniors in power. The line-up “was:
1929—-B. Freeman**, R. Wills, E. Moran,
E. Boyd*, J. Carwratis V. Buel, S. Bradley.
1931—E, Baer*, ‘A. Burrows*, . E.
Blanchard***, M. Frothingham*, C,
Asher, -E.-Totten, H. Thomas:

1928.vs. 1931; January 23.

* The champion Senior team. claimed

another scalp on. Monday when it beat



vans which will take British trade across
the seas and bring back—like the galleons
of old—a less bulky ‘though no less sub-
stantial.cargo in the form of dividends.”
This explariation of the rising favor of
Spanish studies in England is “materialis-
tic interpretation of. history” indeed: But
it.is sound, just as certainly 3 as the’ grow-
ing suecess, of Spanish Studies in this
country is based on a nascent, yet uncon-
scious, ambition of empire, economic at
least, over the countries of Central and
South America.
Good Command of English.

Yet his argument, intelligible to the
counting-house, announces a collection of
essays as delicate, as aigy, as far removed
from obvious facts as well may be. Let
me quote just a paragraph, which will
evidence at the same time Mr.
Madariaga’s unusual command of the
tesources of the.English language:

“Tt is too .readily assumed that the
True, the Good'and the Beautiful are
one and the same thing. They are. We
want them to be. We passionately want
them.to_be,.and_that-is why. we-keep-prov-
ing it through ages of philosophy. But
even if they are; even though they are
one and the same thing, it is only in the
Infinite, parallel ideas that’ meet in the

of the earth.e And, even as geometrically
parallel ‘lines, they never meet for prae-
tical purposes.”

He has published other books, ape
under the title of “Canciones de ciego;’
volume of literary portraits; “Seiublanaad
literarias,” and quite recently a “Guide to
Don Quixote,” and I suppose it is no mean

achievement to find a public for such a
b k, in the face of the mountain of
literature that has
vantes.

I can say little more. , But you may ask,
pertinently, what all this has to do with
the “Chiefof the Disarmament Section
ot the Secretariat of the League of Na-
tions”? And my. answer is that you can-
not dissociate the two aspects. of -the
man.

thost exciting moments was When Blanch-

keeper, right over the line for a goal, Bur-
rows played a fast game for the Fresh-
men. For ’28 Guiterman made a pretty
goal, and Field’s playing was much better
than it has been lately. The line-up was:
