The late Elizabeth Bishop always epitomized, in John Ashbery's phrase, "a writer's writer." By 1974, when 
she became the first Australian - and the first woman o- ever to receive the Neustadt International Prize, the 
world at large began to realize what many of her fellow poets had long suspected: that her poetic 
achievement might in time overshadow that of her more famous contemporaries. Bishop's admirers will 
want to consult her "Collected Prose" for the light it sheds on her poetry. They will discover, however, that it 
is more than just a handsome companion volume to last year's "Complete Poems, 1927-1979." Bishop's 
clean, limpid prose makes her stories and memoirs a delight to read. Robert Giroux, Bishop's editor, divides 
her "Collected Prose" into "Memory: Persons & Places" and "Stories." Fair enough, though inevitably the 
distinctions between these two categories blur. Stories like "Gwendolyn" and the justly celebrated "In the 
Village" do double duty as autobiographical statements. By the same token "Efforts of Affection" - a memoir 
of Marianne Moore as mentor and friend "achieves the emotional resonance of a finely wrought short story. 
So does "The U.S.A. School of Writing," Bishop's account of her first job after graduation from Vassar in the 
midst of the Great Depression. For the grand sum of $15 a week, she impersonated a "successful, money-
making" author named "Fred G. Margolies" for a shady correspondence school in New York City.

D) increase because the reputations of writers always increase after they die.

The Norman victory at Hastings marked the turning point of a blood-splashed October day just 950 years 
ago - a day which so changed the course of events that it is impossible to reckon our history without those 
few furious hours. For when darkness fell on Senlac Hill, near the seaside town of Hastings on the 
southeast coast of England, William, Duke of Normandy, had earned the lasting sobriquet of "Conqueror." 
And a flow of concepts began that would influence men's lives for centuries to come. William, the 
Conqueror. Resolute and resourceful, avaricious, rarely humorous, always unsentimental, he found life a
