Death and the Statesman argues that the fear of death powerfully shapes our thinking about war. Drawing on an extensive study of 20th century US foreign policy officials, Underhill-Cady argues that through the use of symbolism, metaphor, and ritual, foreign policy leaders construe war as a battle against death itself. He provides a fresh and provocative perspective on the underlying cultural and psychological dynamics that make it possible for nations to go to war.

Excerpt from The Statesman and the Man: A Discourse on Occasion of the Death of Hon. John Quincy Adams With devout, subdued, and serious thought, we meet to take counsel in the house of God, as may be fit, on an occasion like this, of mingled gratitude and solemnity. The final seal is set, by the hand of God, to the record which bears the name of him whose obsequies we have just observed, as the last survivor of that company whose counsels gave form and strength to the young Republic. Under the auspices and by commission of washington, the young man began, more than half a century ago, his career of honorable public service. Within the week he has laid that commission down; and with out a spot on his fair fame, leaving no one line re corded which, dying, he could wish to blot, the venerable patriot has passed away, and full of years and honors has been gathered to his fathers. Lovely and pleasant is the memory of their lives, and in death they are not divided. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
