The Reverent Discipline, The Courage Of Judgment, And This New Collection Are All Outstanding Critiques Not Only Of Literature And Criticism But Also Of Society And Culture. Writing From The Tradition Of What Edmund Burke Calls The Dissidence Of Dissent, Panichas Combines Moral Commitment And Polemical Fervor To Diagnose The Crisis Of Modernity. The Overall Tone Of The Essays Is Urgent, Censorious, And Combative, As The Author Assiduously Interconnects The Needs Of Religion, The Quality Of Leadership, The Thought Of Great Writers, The Current Plight Of The Humanities, And The Structure Of Politics.
