An appreciation of the life and work of F. W. Bateson (1901-1978), teacher, critic, editor and polemicist, by Mark Storey. F. W. Bateson 's influence on the study and appreciation of English literature extended far beyond Corpus Christi College, Oxford, where he taught from 1946 until 1969.
Bateson's combative and irreverent manner, his battles within the Oxford English school and the long-running debate with F. R. Leavis are recalled by former pupils, colleagues and friends, including A. L. ALVAREZ , ALAN BRIEN , JOHN CAREY , VALENTINE CUNNINGHAM , DONALD DAVIE , MARTIN DODSWORTH, GRAHAM MARTIN , CHRISTOPHER RICKS , WALLACE ROBSON, IAN SMALL, STEPHEN WALL.
