Brian Cox (poet)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Charles Brian Cox CBE (5 September 1928 - 24 April 2008) was an English academic and poet.[1]
In 1959 Cox and his friend A. E. Dyson founded the literary journal Critical Quarterly. English teachers in more than half the grammar schools in the country subscribed to it. The journal published five Black Papers between 1969 and 1977. These were controversial, due to their criticism of comprehensive schools and child-centered teaching methods.[1]
