The Communities of Europe

In Volume 15, 'The Communities of Europe', we mark the gradual approach to European unity by looking at Europe's intransigent variety. Amongst others, Henry Gifford looks at the place of the writer in European culture, and J. M. Ritchie examines what happens when the writer is displaced and dispossessed of his language through war, emigration and exile.
