Description

Providing a rare and creative sense of authority's various faces, this collection of poems travels from intellectual and artistic power to philosophical, military, and imperial power; and above all, personal influence.

The verse introduces the persuasiveness, complexities, and intrigues of "table talk"-a European tradition of informed and enlightened conversation that has virtually disappeared from the experience of North American culture.

Commanding and informed in their own sense of purpose, these pieces evince a gentle curiosity for greatness, creating an engaging portrait of simple humanity, powerful minds, and memorable ideas.
