Scholarship and Stylishness, Clive James , single work correspondence
James confesses that Judith Pugh's criticism of his poem 'William Dobell's Cypriot' is 'no doubt correct about the scholarly facts'. James says that he is 'searching the poem for a single fact I got right.' He agrees with Pugh that 'scholarship should always set the limits before imagination gets to work.'
