Four World Conquerors End in Grim Lament
Four men who shook the earth with bold conquests are portrayed in elegiac detail. Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar, and Bonaparte rise to mythic power, then die in tragedy: debauch for Alexander, uncertain death for Hannibal, assassination for Caesar, and exile for Bonaparte. The piece underscores the hollow end of worldly greatness.

Friday Mosque Duty in Constantinople Preserved for Political Ends
The Sultan performs Friday devotions at a different mosque weekly to display regime continuity to Turks and foreign powers. The ritual, mandated by the Koran, serves political aims by proving the Sultan’s existence and resilience amid potential intrigue. Even serious illness cannot halt the ceremony.
