Poetry of Economics, Politics and Compassion

By Patrick Pietroni

The framework of these short volumes introduces the reader to the specific focus of each book. The accompanying poems and images offer an aesthetic and emotional experience.

In this volume Professor Pietroni explores the poetry of economics and politics using the metaphor of the Greek god Atlas, who carries Earth on his shoulders as punishment for being unhospitable to Perseus. In developing this metaphor, Pietroni stresses the need to introduce and understand the gods and goddesses of compassion.
