MOTIVES
The T echniques of Moving
M en to Action
By Kenneth Burke
"The author's purpose, his
learning, his ingenuity, are
equally impressive. I liked
particularly the bits of critic–
ism strewn throughout the
book as illustrations: inter–
p retations of Milton, Mat–
thew Arnold, Machiavelli,
Dante . . . Castiglione, Kafka,
Kierkegaard, Henry James,
Gerard
Manly
Hopkins,
Yeats, T . S. Eliot .. . Mr.
Burke's courage is not purely
of the theoretical kind . . .
H e is fighting for free
thought and free speech at a
time when these are de–
nounced as un-American ac–
tivities." -
