Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - I have liked to think of my favorite poetic creations as 'little jewel boxes.' I take care and joy in the most delicate, most elaborate, and most dazzling constructions of form. This is celebratory. Even when the poem is not happy-even when it is outright and crushingly tragic-it is still celebratory. It is celebratory as a priest celebrates a mass. Poetry is a spiritual exercise for me and I take up its practice with the awesome gravity of a holy vocation.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A "summa" is at once summary and apogee-the culmination and condensation of all things. Here I start with an omni-comprehensive breadth of material, the pan-civilizational heritage and transcendent intelligible cosmos, and then from there, I shape these precious gems and metals into a crown of literary form. The form in which I've worked this crown is a series, indeed a series of series-seria seriarum. These series, ten in total-ten, the archetypally complete number-sequence the entire range of being and consciousness from a comprehensive circuit of angles: (1) the four threefold-named planes of reality, (2) the ten numbers of the decad, (3) the twenty-six letters of the alphabet, (4) the seven liberal arts, (5) the nine muses, (6) the seven continents, (7) the eight (once nine) planets, (8) the twenty-four hours of the days, (9) the twelve months and four seasons of the year, and (10) five ages of a universal history. The circle is complete. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
