Topic: Bernard Spencer


  
  What a little-known British poet named Bernard Spencer knew. - By Christopher Hitchens - Slate Magazine
It was written by Bernard Spencer, one of those literary figures of the '30s whose reputation didn't quite survive the decade.
Spencer's father had been a servant of the British Raj in India, but there was certainly no occasion in 1936 on which 1,000 British colonial soldiers lost their lives, either.
Spencer's ambivalence is a reminder that there's no reason to mock other people who are divided in mind and soul about casualties and the morality of war.

 Herbert Spencer (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Whereas Mill equated fundamental justice with his liberty principle, Spencer equated justice with equal liberty, which holds that the “liberty of each, limited by the like liberty of all, is the rule in conformity with which society must be organized.” (Spencer, 1970: 79).
Moreover, for Spencer as for Mill, liberty was sacrosanct, insuring that his utilitarianism was equally a bona fide form of liberalism.
Spencer's liberal utilitarian credentials are therefore compelling as his 1863 exchange of letters with Mill further testifies.

 Political Theorists and Activists.
An English evolutionary philosopher, Spencer argued that the ultimate scientific principles are unknowable and, agnostically, that the Unknowable must be a power, or God.
.) Spencer was known for his application of the scientific doctrines of evolution to philosophy and ethics, with a central principle, the 'persistence of force,' as the agent of all change, form, and organization in the knowable universe.

 NS4 - Weatherhead Review
It was stimulated by the friendship of the founders: Spencer, Durrell, and Robin Fedden.
Fedden is relatively unknown; his poetic output was small, but in the lyrics that gives the journal its title he expresses a refusal to lose the "importance of personal life and values" in the face of local contemporary disruptions, which Professor Bowen suggests is the "meaning" of this collective literary venture.
The title of this good book is taken from a post-war poem of Bernard Spencer's, "Out of Sleep," which presents the theme of inwardness which Bowen discovers running through the work of the poets, the atavistic depths of personal psychology.

It was written by Bernard Spencer, one of those literary figures of the '30s whose reputation didn't quite survive the decade.
The civil war in Spain began that same year, though there was no engagement where Gen. Franco's invading troops, mainly Muslim Moroccans under Catholic command (and therefore "scrounging imperial," all right) lost 1,000 men.
Spencer's father had been a servant of the British Raj in India, but there was certainly no occasion in 1936 on which 1,000 British colonial soldiers lost their lives, either.
