Kimmage Melville's oceanic parable of democratic citizenship; Arash Azizi the patriotism of a progressive; Mark Lilla on the unbeautiful nature of politics; Robert Alter on how the Bible does a lot with a little; Len Gutkin on the persistence of the political in the reading of literature; Kai Sina the strenuous liberalism and Zionism of Thomas Mann; Nadia Jamil Mahmoud Darwish's poetry of empathy; Tamar Glezerman on mourning far away from home; Ani Chkhikvadze discovers the occult in the nation's capital; Celeste Marcus on rape in polite society; and Leon Wieseltier the meanings of patriotism in our semiquincentennial.
