Thanks, Harry-Wragg. Worked out 8d now. Think it's SAYS YOU.

Mikejas

8d authority = SAY, extremely sketchy - SY, university = OU (OPen University)
Therefore SAYS YOU =incredible
13a LIV = 54 in Roman Numerals, Y = unknown
Therefore LIVY (a Roman historian)
17a THOREAU (sorry! can only offer EAU as water abroad but I'm sure that this is correct as it fits in with my other letters)
