Noel Annan was a British Military Intelligence officer, author and academic, Provost of King’s College, Cambridge and later Vice Chancellor of the University of London and a member of the House of Lords, raised to the peerage as Baron Annan in 1965. As an academic, he was among the leading lights in the emerging discipline of cultural studies and here, in his Romanes Lecture in 1965, he frames English culture and cultural studies using Matthew Arnold as his central reference. Annan was a signatory to the famous letter in The Times newspaper in 1958 which heralded the establishment of the Homosexual Law Reform Society.
