Concentrated particularly on poetry, his teaching was characterised by vast knowledge and intellectual experience, but also a great humanity and warmth, which made him the model personal tutor who regularly entertained students at home and took them on trips around the Bristol area. His work on the Symbolists, shared latterly with Mr Richard Hobbs, helped to feed the long series of conferences on Literature and the Visual Arts which still continue.
