Podcasts about Valediction

Interview by Kris PetersWith their new album A Sonication, Germany-based metal band OBSCURA launch the second of their trilogy concept. The group's second (seventh overall) album for Nuclear Blast pivots on many fronts. Advanced, elegant yet refreshing, A Sonication sums up past endeavors effortlessly as it gazes with purpose and conviction into the future. OBSCURA are fan-renowned and critically acclaimed for challenging and then expanding upon norms.From Retribution (2004) through A Valediction (2021), the band flourished and made significant progress in a musical genre unprepared for a creative shot of German invention. A Sonication spearheads OBSCURA into a new era of extreme metal.Guitarist/vocalist Steffen Kummerer founded Obscura in 2002. Early on, he set out to improve, redefine, and push forward. Under his self-label creation, the Bavarian released debut album Retribution (2004), followed by heavy touring throughout Europe. Word quickly spread that a brand-new band from the south of Germany was on the rise. Buzz lead to a deal with U.S.-based Relapse Records. The first record out was Cosmogenesis. In Europe, Metal Hammer Germany awarded the album 6/7 while in the U.S. Cosmogenesis hit the Billboard charts at #71. The cross-continental praise and fevered momentum landed OBSCURA on high-profile tours in Europe, North America, and Japan.When follow-up Omnivium arrived in 2011, they upped their chart success, received more accolades from publications like Terrorizer, Rock Hard, and Decibel and had another massive round-world tour cycle, while enhancing and making progress on their clever brutality. OBSCURA further developed their sound on Akróasis (2016). Moored by jaw-dropping tracks like Sermon of the Seven Suns, Ode to the Sun, and the title track, Akróasis elevated OBSCURA to the highest levels of international renown.OBSCURA's most significant accomplishment was, however, just around the corner. The final part of a tetralogy, Diluvium (2018), fiercely pursued OBSCURA's multi-album transformation into musical innovators and metal powerhouses. Music videos for the title track, Emergent Evolution and Mortification of the Vulgar Sun, in concert with a substantial interest in virtuosic, forward-thinking metal, posited OBSCURA in the good graces (yet again) of the worldwide press in addition to rocketing up, for the very first time, the official album charts in Germany. The Germans also topped out at #3 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart with Diluvium.A turning point in the career of the Germans manifested with the first release for the biggest independent metal label on the planet, Nuclear Blast Records. A Valediction granted the band worldwide success, topping their previous albums in a heartbeat, and saw the band climbing higher chart positions worldwide. With epic opening track Forsaken, technical-through the roof Solaris and the catchy, melodic and yet accessible title track, A Valediction established the group as an outstanding and energetic live act, to be proved by their first tour to cover South- and Central America, aside from touring relentlessly throughout Europe, North America and Asia.With the February 7 release date of A Sonication looming, HEAVY sat down with Steffen Kummerer to find out more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

TrineDay's The Journey Podcast 172Onward! Kris, Paul, Liz, Kent and Adam Wish Bruce WellPublisher Kris Millegan and authors Paul Fitzgerald, Elizabeth Gould, S. K. Bain and A. W. Finnegan wish Bruce de Torres well as he becomes Communications Director for the American Small Business League. Bruce became TrineDay's Marketing Director in 2020 when Kris launched TrineDay's podcast, THE JOURNEY: Conversations with Publisher Kris Millegan.Bruce's book, GOD, SCHOOL, 9/11 AND JFK: The Lies That Are Killing Us and The Truth That Sets Us Free, came out in 2021 (Read the amazing reviews at BrucedeTorres.com!), the same year Kris launched TrineDay's Live monthly Zoom Roundtables, inspired by Paul and Liz's book, THE VALEDICTION, their two-part memoir about the mainstream media's refusal to broadcast the truths that Paul and Liz found in Afghanistan about the Soviet Union's presence there in the 1980s, and about what Paul and Liz call “the narrative creation process.”The Roundtables explore JFK's vision of peace, and economic justice as the foundation for a genuine world peace, highlighting the principles of Henry George, 19th Century American political economist. Future Roundtables can be found at Valediction.net, under Events. Past Roundtables can be seen on YouTube, on the channel called “Valediction Vision.”S. K. Bain is the author of four TrineDay books: THE MOST DANGEROUS BOOK IN THE WORLD: 9/11 as Mass Ritual; THE END…IS ONLY THE BEGINNING: 2022 and the Coming of God; BLACK JACK: The Dawning of the New Great Age of Satan; and MOST DANGEROUS: A True Story. His humor lets the reader comprehend the malice evident in the events he relates.A. W. Finnegan is the author of THE SLEEPER AGENT: The Rise of Lyme Disease, Chronic Illness and the Great Imitator Antigens of Biological Warfare, “very different than what most people think of when they hear ‘biological warfare.' An attack to tire and exhaust; to take down your enemy over one hundred years, not six months or so with a deadly disease, because those burn out quickly and actually don't do as much damage. … if you take out the immune system, there's a secondary effect on the brain, causing what I call the dark triad: chronic disease, neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, and cancers. All three of those are absolutely exploding in western countries today.”Inspired by Paul and Liz's stories of synchronicities, dreams, and other mystical experiences, Bruce describes seeing JFK in his mind's eye while standing near the eternal flame at Arlington Cemetery, then having an echo or bookend experience while standing on the Grassy Knoll in Dealey Plaza seven years later.“TrineDay will always be family. I will stay in touch. And, as Kris says, there is a right way to walk here on earth, a right way for us to treat our brothers and sisters.”

Shabbat Teaching with Jake Petzold, at Temple Beth Am, Los Angeles, August 3, 2024. As our Torah calendar turns to Dvarim, we turn to reading the greatest valediction the world knows: Moses's extended set of farewell addresses as the people Israel encamped poised to enter the land of Israel. In these speeches, which almost alone comprise Deuteronomy, Moses retells Israel's story and delivers a final charge for the transformations they would experience without him. What can we learn from Moses about saying goodbye? We'll look at various farewells in history, including George Washington and Lou Gehrig. Jake Petzold is a Rabbinic Intern at Temple Emanuel of Beverly Hills. Introduced by Rabbi Rebecca Schatz. (Youtube/Zoom)

The English writer and Anglican cleric John Donne is considered now to be the preeminent metaphysical poet of his time. He was born in 1572 to Roman Catholic parents, when practicing that religion was illegal in England. His work is distinguished by its emotional and sonic intensity and its capacity to plumb the paradoxes of faith, human and divine love, and the possibility of salvation. Donne often employs conceits, or extended metaphors, to yoke together “heterogenous ideas,” in the words of Samuel Johnson, thus generating the powerful ambiguity for which his work is famous. After a resurgence in his popularity in the early 20th century, Donne's standing as a great English poet, and one of the greatest writers of English prose, is now assured.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Likewise with the Anglo-Scottish composer William Wordsworth (1908–88), great-great-grandnephew of the poet, with whom I occasionally exchanged letters and phone calls in the pre-e-mail late 1970s and early 1980s: I never could have predicted that his reputation might be restored by a series of Toccata Classics albums of his orchestral music, and I confess to an inordinate degree of pleasure in having helped right that injustice. Wordsworth's piano music, too, was poorly known before now, none of it recorded since a handful of pieces appeared on LP 60 years ago – though his epic Piano Sonata is a work of major importance. The first-ever complete recording, on this release, reveals an honest, unfussy approach to the keyboard akin to that of two other major symphonists, Sibelius and Rubbra: like them, Wordsworth's primary concern seems to have been the expression of deep feeling – which makes the gentle story-telling of his miniatures for children all the more surprising. The pianist is that stalwart defender of Scottish piano composers, Christopher Guild – who grew up just a few miles along the Moray Firth from Wordsworth's Highland home overlooking Glen Feshie in the Cairngorms.TracksPiano Sonata in D Minor, Op. 13 (1938-39) (27:04) I.

Paul Fitzgerald & Elizabeth Gould - The ValedictionIn a fascinating interview Paul and Elizabeth tell Ed a tale of deception, drugs and diplomacy. But behind it all lies one common factor; greed. And with American spokespeople saying Afghanistan was marxist because ‘the women can read', what chance does the truth have?BACKGROUNDAfghanistan was an American crusade to win the war against the “Evil Soviet Empire” and remake the world in its own image.This goes right to the heart of understanding the destiny of the Western Dream. Instead of a dream the US is caught in a nightmare. Now Americans long for a spiritual regeneration away from the vision of war as an honorable sacrifice to a vision of peace that serves all. No one seems able to make the process move in the right direction. We assimilated a profound understanding over four decades of how to envision moving from war to peace that is now in our novelized memoir, The Valediction: Three Nights of Desmond at the Kabul Hotel.Book : The Valediction: Three Nights of DesmondWebsite : Invisible HistoryThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

Kevin Byrne it's fair to say is a veteran of the Irish Metal Scene stretching back to the formation of Valediction in 2005. Myself and Kevin cover those years leading up to the release of their acclaimed debut album 'The Primitive Architecture' recorded in 2010/20011, by a relatively young Mick Richards at Track Mix Studios. In fact that bond with Mick was to prove fruitful when Valediction went their separate ways, with Kevin approaching Mick with plans for his solo project 'Sonus Mortis'. Six albums in nine years is an incredible outlay for an solo artist and there is plenty to cover in relation to how Kevin approaches song structures, lyrical themes and the build up to his current brilliant release 'Collapse The Mountain'. I hope you enjoy the episode and please 'SUBSCRIBE' to the channel if you haven't already. Thanks Richie.

"We had the privilege this year of having Colin Iles's talk at our Valediction. And share his thoughts on what the future might look like for our future alumni. At Edu Inc, the Valediction is a very, very important rite of passage. And one of the key elements is that the students get to share their journey and their thoughts on their journey with their peers and with their parents. It's a time for them to acknowledge the people that have helped them along the path, the people who have supported them, and to kind of prepare what the future generations in the school might have to experience and the things that they might have to overcome. I met Colin in a podcast that didn't become a podcast when we ended up agreeing on too much. And he wanted a boxing match. But what it did highlight for us is that there was a likeness and thinking on what education should look like, and the future that these kids are going to be walking into. And I think that the message he gave them was very pertinent. I certainly had to listen to it more than once to take it all out. And I would like to share this message with our community so that everybody understands what the future might hold for them." - Gershom Aitchison - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gershom-aitchison-1b074b234/ Visit our website http://educationincorporated.co.za YouTube Video · Gershom Aitchison · EduInc website · Facebook (Public) · Facebook (closed group) · Twitter (closed group) · YouTube · Review us on Google

Marvel Studios What If... Captain Carter was The First Avenger? I know my value. Anyone else's opinion doesn't really matter. This is a quote from Agent Carter written by Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters from Season One, episode eight titled Valediction. I wish this episode of What if would have incorporated it as well. It's such a character-defining line of dialogue. Hop on the Awesome Pod Mix and rediscover the episode as I react and talk about the many references, metaphors, Easter Eggs and cinematic details I spotted while watching the TV Show.

Publisher RA “Kris” Millegan talks with Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould about JFK's peace speech at American University, how its principles can still help the world today, the May 25, 2022 FREE Zoom event about it (ROUNDTABLE 9 - RSVP at Valedictiondotnet), the need to transcend the Hegelian Dialectic, and the reality of the mystical dimension.THE VALEDICTION is Paul and Liz's two-book novelized memoir about their journalism in Afghanistan in the 1980s, their return home, where American media would not broadcast the truths that they had found, and their journey into history, mysticism, and the real power behind empires.

1) "The Ecstasy" is a poem of incarnation. It is one of my favorite Donne love poems. The souls of lovers, that which truly loves, are sheathed in flesh: Because such fingers need to knit          That subtle knot which makes us man, So must pure lovers' souls descend          T' affections, and to faculties, Which sense may reach and apprehend . . . Love's mysteries in souls do grow,          But yet the body is his book.   2) "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" was written by Donne to his pregnant wife, Ann More, on the occasion of his departure from England to continental Europe. This beautiful love poem is filled with Donne's wit and passion. Playing on an extended metaphor of twin compasses, the poem ends with these lines:   Such wilt thou be to me, who must,    Like th' other foot, obliquely run; Thy firmness makes my circle just,    And makes me end where I begun.   3) "For Whom the Bell Tolls," also called "No Man is an Island," is not technically a poem, but a paragraph taken from a "Meditation" on life's trials. It is, nevertheless, one of the Donne's most well-known and quoted works.   If you'd like to support us, donate through Paypal at Romanschapter5@comcast.net https://www.youtube.com/c/TheChristianAtheist/featured https://www.facebook.com/JnJWiseWords https://wisewordsforyouroccasion.wordpress.com   #poem #poetry #verse #literature #aestheticliterature #aesthetic #rhythmic #phonaesthetics #soundsymbolism #metre #prosaic #literarycomposition #poet #ambiguity #symbolism #irony #poeticdiction #muse #prosody #meter #metricalpatterns #rhymescheme #johndonne #donne #hymntochrist #thisismyplayslastscene #ahymntogodthefather #battermyheartthreepersondgod #breakofday #afever #forwhomthebelltolls #avaledictionforbiddingmourning #theecstasy    

We have reached the end of Agent Carter Season 1!!! In this episode of Marvelous Divas, we discuss the Agent Carter episode "Valediction" (s1e8). Agent Carter has been a rollercoaster ride, but not necessarily a ride the Divas want to stop experiencing. It feels like we are moving through the Marvel Cinematic Universe very quickly. The divas finally discuss what they love about Agent Carter, including all the badass assassin action and the sad ending to this show. Also, listen to why the Divas thought the showrunners suspected Agent Carter would only last one season.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould, authors of Invisible History: Afghanistan's Untold Story, Crossing Zero: The AfPak War at the Turning Point of American Empire, and now the novelized memoir The Valediction, join me to discuss their forty year journey investigating American Empire, the Cold War arms race, military Keynesianism and destruction of the civilian economy, covert operations, the rise of the peculiar ex-Trotskyites that came to be known as neocons, the politicization of intelligence vis-a-vis "Team B", the death of the SALT treaty, and the political maneuverings of the foreign policy heavyweight Zbigniew Brzezinski in the Jimmy Carter White House all through their attempts to understand the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. We begin the conversation by delving into Paul's work in the talk show business. Paul discusses how an anti-SALT (Strategic Arms Limitation Talks) treay documentary led him to make a documentary that was pro-SALT. This led him to speak with the well-known economist John Kenneth Galbraith, who told him about some key Cold War hawk figures like Paul Nitsze. Liz explains how many thought the end of the Vietnam War and later the Carter Presidency would lead to a new era that would lead to a reinvestment in the American civilian economy rather than the Wall Street and military economy. The SALT treaties were part of this hope as were talks of peace and détente. Paul then goes on to explain what Paul Warnke told him about peace talks going back to Lyndon Johnson's Presidency. From there we jump into the topic of the neoconservatives and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Paul and Liz discuss the involvement of the virulently anti-Soviet Zbigniew Brzezinski in the Carter administration as National Security advisor. In this regard we talk about Paul and Liz's interview with Dr. Charles Cogan, chief of the Near East and South Asia Division in the CIA's Directorate of Operations (1979–1984), in which Cogan talked about asking Zbigniew Brzezinski about the "Afghan Trap", the idea that Brzezinski intentionally lured the Soviets into Afghanistan via covert operations, and Brzezinski's surprising response. This leads us to talk about Brzezinski's infamous interview with Le Nouvel Observateur in 1998 and the controversy surrounding it. From there we delve into a number of different odds and ends including the death of Adolph "Spike" Dubs; explaining what the Afghan Trap was; the relationship between Trotskyism, game theory, and neocons; Team B and the politicization of intelligence, the mujahadeen, the neoconservative casus belli, Cold War political theater, Zbigniew Brzezinski ad a Dr. Faustus character, late-stage imperial dementia, and much, much more.

Minute Forty-Six: From Thor's Valediction to Coulson's Appropriation Joining us to discuss the royal and polite way Thor says goodbye and Coulson's own polite way of appropriating all of the Scientist Three's gear is Matt Carroll, one of the two co-hosts of the award-winning MCUCast and founder of the Stranded Panda Podcast Network. In the forty-sixth minute of Kenneth Branagh's 2011 film Thor... Jane has no idea what to do after Thor kisses her hand. Her flustered behavior is adorable. Matt struggles with the fact that Thor falls in love with Jane by the end of the film but it does feel like they pull a lot of the romantic comedy tropes here to make this work. So to that end, if you can't buy into the rom-com nature and their meet-cute, you may struggle with this relationship. But is Thor interested in Jane at this point or just kissing the cute girl's hand? Regardless, Darcy and Erik curtsey and bow, respectively, and it's adorable. Especially Darcy. Which certainly holds true with her reactions so far in the film. Erik's bow is a bit more awkward and uncomfortable, but it's as if he feels compelled. It's great. In the background, you can see the paved road turns to dirt, giving away a bit of the old west town in which this was filmed. And have you ever noticed the Christmas Every Day shop on Main Street? Wow, does this feel like real small-town America. Let's not forget the Liquor Locker! The Scientists Three find SHIELD agents raiding her lab. Agent Coulson and SHIELD seem a bit more like a threat in this film. That feels new in the MCU. Well, there was a bit of that in Iron Man 2. But did you know that this was originally scripted to be Nick Fury? They couldn't get Samuel L. Jackson, though, so it was rewritten as Agent Coulson, which may be why he feels a bit different here. Erik clearly has heard of SHIELD though. Where? Will we find out in the future? The rest of the Scientists Three don't seem to have heard of them. This film really sets up this idea of a shadow government organization. Does that work for SHIELD? To that end, how hard is it to come up with acronyms for business names? Erik may say to Jane to let it go but Jane says no – this is her life's work up to this point. She's not ready to let it go. Was there a point in Erik's life when he was less professorial? Why does Agent Coulson say they're investigating a security threat? Is that a lie to create their cover-up? Or do they feel there is a security risk at this point? Why doesn't he call it out as an 084? But what was SHIELD looking for? We see some SHIELD agents. There are a lot. A lot more than the Scientists Three. But we can't really see any faces here. Perhaps it's an intentional feel where they all blend together as ‘agents.' The script says the back of the truck is loaded with Jane's Dark Matter analysis machine. Was that meant to tie into Malekith's dark matter dagger in Thor: The Dark World? What's funny about that, though, is that it looks like it's just loaded with camera gear from the crew. It doesn't look like scientific equipment from the Scientists Three. The Scientists Three go from saying goodbye to arguing with SHIELD agents, and we're here to talk about it all. Tune in!

Obscura have just released their scorching new album, A Valediction, which paved the way for a chance to chat with the fella at the centre of proceedings, Steffen Kummerer. A Valediction is a showcase for Steffen's immense talent on the guitar as both a songwriter and soloist. We discuss the album, why he decided to pursue a career playing extreme metal and his recollections of his time in the Death To All legacy show which honours the music of the late, great Chuck Schuldiner.

Afghanistan was an American crusade to win the cold war against the “Evil Soviet Empire” and remake the world in its own image. Our telling goes right to the heart of understanding what really happened to America with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Instead of fulfilling the Western Dream, the US trapped itself in its own nightmare of endless war. Now Americans long for a spiritual regeneration towards peace. No one seems able to make the process move in the right direction. Over four decades we assimilated an understanding of how to envision moving from war as an honorable sacrifice to peace that serves all. Our two-part novelized memoir delivers a revelatory look at how we came to that awareness through worldly and otherworldly encounters with many fascinating people along the way. -The Valediction: Three Nights of Desmond Part 1 combines Three Days of the Condor and JFK as journalist Paul Fitzgerald unravels the deep state mystery behind the unsolved 1979 assassination of U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan Adolph Dubs. Dubs' death changed the world as much as JFK's but few even know his name. In a serendipitous encounter at the Kabul Hotel during his investigation, Paul meets a mysterious ally who not only helps him solve the Dubs' murder, he challenges Paul's assumptions about why he was drawn to Afghanistan in the first place and what to do about it.

It's time to get tech-y. We welcome lead vocalist/guitarist Steffen Kummerer from Germany progressive death metal outfit, Obscura. It's been a wild ride for Steffen in recent memory, from dropping an album-of-the-year contender in 2018 to a complete band lineup change – This new chapter for him and Obsura is a personal one. We take a deeper look into the makings and origins behind the new album “A Valediction”, and how it serves as the most complete album for Obscura to this day. Steffen mentions how this record also goes to 11, and boy oh boy, does it ever. From themes, songwriting, to the production and the new members, Obscura may have very well one-upped their sound yet again, “A Valediction” shows the growth of not only the band's musicality, but Steffen's as well. Tune in now and be sure to buy and stream the 6th album from Obscura, “A Valediction” drops November 19 via Nuclear Blast Records.Stay connected with Obscura, visit: https://realmofobscura.com/, https://www.instagram.com/realmofobscura/, and https://www.facebook.com/RealmOfObscuraStay connected with IUF, visit: https://interviewunderfire.com/

The opening of a letter is called the Salutation but the closing of a letter is called the Valediction. In today's episode I share the powerful valediction of Paul's closing of the letter to the Corinthian church. "Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.  Let all that you do be done with love." 1 Cor. 16:13-14

TrineDay Publishing invites everyone to Roundtable Number One, “Afghanistan and Beyond: American Duplicity Since the 1970s,” a FREE Zoom event on Wednesday, September 15, 2021, at 3pm-eastern. Reservations are required at Valediction.net/eventlist.This series is inspired by “The Valediction: Three Nights of Desmond,” the new book by husband and wife Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould – because, as publisher Kris Millegan says, “The folks in the shadows who lie, cheat and steal to manipulate us must be exposed” – and, as Ms. Gould has said, “Charlie Wilson's War is the propaganda story. We lured the Soviet Union into Afghanistan, to trap them in their own ‘Vietnam.' The mujahideen we funded were not freedom fighters. They brutalized the Afghan people.”We recently had a planning meeting. Here's a little audio from that. We hope you reserve your place and join us on September fifteenth.#afghanistan #americanempire #fallofkabul #carterandbrzezinski #thesovietinvasion #graveyardofempires #thevalediction #paulfitzgerald #elizabethgould

They also discuss the new book “The Valediction,” about US interference in Afghanistan and the mystical experiences of its authors, Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould.#skbain #themostdangerousbookintheworld #911asmassritual #blackjackthedawningofanewgreatageofsatan #theendisonlythebeginning #2022andthecomingofgod

When Idan Dershowitz broke the news last week that the extremely ancient Shapira Deuteronomy Fragments (aka Shapira Scroll or Valediction of Moses) might not be forgeries, but actually authentic, Tony Burke agreed to discuss some of the public questions and concerns about it with Early Christian Texts. Dershowitz claims the manuscript could be older than Deuteronomy. Although not directly involved in this case, Dr. Burke does have experience with modern forgeries and explains what's at stake and what scholars study.

What does it mean to writ(e) in water? And even more, what does it mean to write 'writ in water' on stone? Or is that in stone? These are all questions raised by John Keats' epitaph, 'Here lies one whose name was writ in water'. Which is why the Keats-Shelley Podcast called Adam Smyth, Professor of English Literature at Balliol College, Oxford, and an expert in Material Texts: or the study of people writing with weird things on weird surfaces.----more---- Subscribe to the Keats-Shelley Podcast or Follow us on Spotify. We began by asking Adam to describe what a 'material text' might be, and what it means to study them. As well as telling us about poems written in glass and invsible ink (lemon juice to you and me), he cast an eye over Keats' epitaph, and pondered the fine distinction between writing 'in water' and 'on water'.  Read about 2021's Keats-Shelley Prize.

A full class on the poem, and on teasing out the metonymic interaction of its metaphors.  The interesting sexual switch at the very end.  A discussion mid-class about whether people liked Donne passionately or not: are his wit and strangeness a bug or a feature. Is his poetry poetry you want to quote?

More on the different speakers in Donne's "Songs and Sonnets."  The idea of the most capacious intelligence: the one who gets most others.  How this plays out in kinds of narrative, especially fantasy fiction.  Who gets whom better: Aslan or the White Witch? Voldemort or Dumbledore? Sauron or Gandalf?  Yoda or Palpatine?  The surprise when we're surprised that the good guys get the evil guys being a staple of narrative interest, because more generally being able to understand others' limitations is central to our assessment of literary characters.  Then on to the two poems: "To his Mistress" and a beginning of "A Valediction: forbidding Mourning."
