The 2011 Trust website has announced a new project as part of its celebrations of 400 years of the Authorised Version of the Bible (or King James Version as it is often known). The idea is to broaden the appreciation of the AV from those with Christian faith to those who appreciate its literary style, and the huge influence it has had on forming the English language.
No surprises with some of the line-up: Andrew Motion, Patricia Routledge, even John Bercow. The eye-catching name in the list is Richard Dawkins. He chooses a passage from Song of Songs. It's just interesting that he was prepared to be associated with the project at all.
Take a look on the 2011 Trust website.
