: THE SOCIOLOGY OF SCANDAL
Talk by Max GluckmanProfessor of Social Anthropology in the University of Manchester
An analysis of the function of gossip and scandal, from sources including Jane Austen and Dr. Colson's study of the Makah Indians, enables the speaker to assert ' with,' he says, ' more assurance than I gain from my personal experience ' that gossip is always far from idle. He suggests that it is a crucial part of social living and offers a guide to its elaborate techniques for the better regulation of society.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
