		Donald Davidson (March 6, 1917-August 30, 2003) was an American philosopher and the Willis S. and Marion Slusser Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the University of California, Berkeley.
		Davidson's most noted work began in the 1963 with an essay, Actions, Reasons and Causes, which attempted to refute the prevailing orthodox view, widely attributed to Wittgenstein, that an agent's reasons for acting cannot be the causes of his action.
		Davidson argued that the fact that the expression of a reason was not so precise, did not mean that the having of a reason could not itself be a state capable of causally influencing behaviour.

	"Whatever Became of Poet-Critics?"
		When they do name another poet almost invariably it is to praise him or her, and in the vaguest possible language ("the poems are alive," they might say, "with rhythm and shape").
		The critic may locate a poet within a tradition--Rudman says for instance that the work of Zbigniew Herbert "has close philosophical links with that of Eastern European poets such as Paul Celan, Vasko Popa and Janos Pilinsky"--but he is unlikely to say how the addition of the poet causes the tradition to jell.
		Poets seem to conceive of criticism as something that before anything else must be useful to them.

		DONALD DAVIDSON, who died in 1968, is now an almost forgotten figure in American literature, but from the 1930s through the 1950s he was known for two reasons.
		Because so much of Davidson's life was that of a Vanderbilt student and professor, as well as book editor of the Nashville Tennessean (he needed the money), Winchell necessarily ekes out the story of his life with a lot of background and information on related subjects.
		Yet Davidson was the one who remained loyal all his life to the concept of a preindustrial South freed from the multiple taints of Northern commercialism, liberal relativism, science, literary modernism, and--most controversial of all--racial equality.
