Dr John Newton

Dr John Newton (Emeritus Fellow) has died at the age of 89. He first joined ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ in 1961, becoming a Fellow in English nine years later. A contributor to ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ Through the Twentieth Century wrote, ‘For me, the mood of ½ð½ÛÖ±²¥ in the late 70s is forever captured in the form of John Newton, English Fellow, soulfully reciting Lapis Lazuli by moonlight beneath the weeping fig-tree’.
