Poetic Perplexities: Emerging Visions of Global Empire? Part 4, with Vyzygoth and JQ on The Alembic Files. (2013)Part 4 of the continuing series “Poetic Perplexities: Emerging Visions of Global Empire?” In this segment, J.Q. joins Al and Theo to continue the discussion of the poet Philip Freneau, zooming in on some of the historical highlights of the French Revolution. In examining this historical timeline, the intent is to gain more of a handle on the implications of a figure like Freneau being a supporter of the French Revolution (at least in its early stages), as “hooked in” as he was with highly influential members of the early Democratic Republicans—a single party that is in fact the root of the two-party system in the U.S. today. As we delve into some of the more astonishing aspects of the French regime under the influence of Robespierre, such as the promotion of The Cult of Reason as a state-sanctioned, atheistic (but with strongly neo-pagan elements) “state religion” to replace Christianity, and the use of fears of terrorism as a justification for the increasing role of the Committee of Public Safety as the primary instrument of state control, are we seeing elements of a vision for the direction of American government and society among at least some of the Democratic Republicans? And are we, perhaps, seeing something almost “prophetic,” in terms of observing elements of a roadmap that in some sense may still be followed by factions within the American power structure today?Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume I https://www.iheart.com/podcast/53-the-vyzygoth-archives-volum-95841757/Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume II https://www.iheart.com/podcast/53-the-vyzygoth-archives-volum-95937378/Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume III https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-vyzygoth-archives-volume-3Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume IV https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-vyzygoth-archives-volume-4-451-600Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume V. https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-vyzygoth-archives-volume-5-601-750--6169624. Vyzygoth Internet Archives, Volume VI. https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-vyzygoth-archives-volume-6-episodes-751-900--6201213Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/william-ramsey-investigates--1898073/support.

Part 3, with Vyzygoth and JQ on The Alembic Files. (2013)In this third segment of “Poetic Perplexities: Emerging Visions of Global Empitre?”, a continuing series on The Alembic Files, J.Q. Useless joins A.L. Aric to explore the perplexing life and career of Philip Freneau, the late 18th/early 19th century poet, sea captain, journalist, newspaper editor and friend or associate of many of the founding fathers, including Madison and Jefferson.Freneau, who is reputed among some literary critics as “the father of American poetry,” is of particular interest to the general subject matter of The Alembic Files because he is also purported to have been “the Anti-Federalist poet.” By examining the content of selected poems of Freneau in the context biographical information and the surrounding historical milieu, A.L. and J.Q. explore the notion that Freneau may have been something quite different.Is it even accurate to characterize Freneau, an early sympathizer with the French Revolution, as an Anti-Federalist at all? If so, we are arguably looking at a form of Anti-Federalism very different from what those who study The Anti-Federalist Papers are familiar with–especially given Freneau’s engagement with Jacobinism which, at the peak of the French Revolution, led to a powerful state regime that prefigures many of the characteristics of the totalitarian systems that emerged in the 20th century.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/william-ramsey-investigates--1898073/support.
