Its accuracy was the more firmly established by the inevitable attacks of actors in the scenes described, who thought the parts they had played undervalued." (Ibid.)

15831ed Patrizi La Militia Romana Polybius LIVY Dionysius ROME Military Ferrara

Franciscus Patricius was a 16th-century Venetian philosopher who wrote a number of philosophical works in both Latin and Italian; and while the majority of his works dealt with his views on Plato and Aristotelian philosophy, his most practical treatise was a translation of the military classics of Polybius, Livy, and Dionysius Halicarnassus. 'La Militia Romana' was written as a scheme for military strategy in the city of Ferrara. Patrizi provides a thorough and detailed analysis for Roman military functions, organization, and ancient battle strategies.

I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love. It's a thought experiment: if we tore down the barracks at military hospitals and offered incentives for Americans in the surrounding neighborhoods to quarter injured service members, what would the honest instructions… Read More
