Description
Episode Description
Episodes 20 - 23 of Heritage feature the distinguished English poet, Dame Edith Sitwell. There are two programs in which Dame Edith appears alone reading her own poetry, and two in which she discusses poetry, poets and the world with guests. In this episode, Dame Edith Sitwell again reads selections from her own poetry. (Description adapted from documents in the NET Microfiche)
Series Description
Through "Heritage," a selected group of prominent persons individually address themselves to broad areas of subject matter in fields where they are particularly qualified to speak. Rather than being a simple series of conventional pattern, this is a "series of series," where each guest appears on several episode in several formats (i.e. straight talk, interview, talk with small group, conversation). This series totaling 131 half-hour episodes was originally recorded on various formats including film and videotape. (Description adapted from documents in the NET Microfiche)
