The editors of the Book Review write: Inspired by the notebooks and reminiscences of his grandfather, a painter who served in the Belgian Army in World War I, Hertmans writes with an eloquence reminiscent of W.G. Sebald as he explores the places where narrative authority, invention and speculation flow together.

Part of the reason that pundits (myself included) have tended to rate the Florida senator highly as a candidate is that he combines a conservative record with some of the gifts of Bill Clinton circa 1992 and Barack Obama circa 2008 — eloquence, optimism, a strong personal narrative, a clear interest in domestic policy.

The firm said that the black voters it spoke with found Buttigieg's "eloquence and presentation style to be appealing" but "are going to need to see real demonstrations of broad enthusiasm and likely some endorsements from 'cool' black people to help them believe that 'other people' don't have a problem" with his sexuality.

In her speech, the first lady soared into the stratosphere of eloquence and nobility as she called on women to be proud of everything they have accomplished, to be determined to resist those who abuse them and to exercise the power that women have to affect the course of our democracy by voting.

In the first years of the twentieth century, young German artists, including Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Emil Nolde, Erich Heckel, and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff—and, less directly, the Austrians Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka—were galvanized by Munch's painterly eloquence and emotional candor, and by his innovative use of woodcuts and other printmaking mediums.

That made him very nervous—as he wasn't a born orator—and after praying on it for a night, the Virgin Mary appeared to him in a dream to give him the gift of eloquence by squirting her breast milk in his eye or his mouth—religious accounts are not entirely clear on this.

The ensuing scandal is by now firmly part of American literary history, fleshed out by various Lowell biographies and studies; by the publication of his letters, in 2005; and by the appearance, in 20173, of his correspondence with Elizabeth Bishop, who, with blunt eloquence, tried to dissuade him from the appropriation of his wife's words.

Born on this day in 1809, Abraham Lincoln had a mythic impact far beyond the U.S. With his craggy face, his eloquence about democracy, his freeing of the slaves and his martyr's death as U.S. president, he has been embraced by fledgling republics, antislavery societies worldwide and countries trying to recover from civil war.

The flood of Ali obituaries written over the last few days by so many legendary writers have been stunning in their eloquence, which is surely a testament to the way he changed the way the world thought of African-Americans and Muslims and boxers and sport and poetry and America and fill in your own blank here.

A specialist in this repertory, with an instinct for the crucial balance between energy and eloquence, she has given me two of my most memorable opera performances in recent years, Rameau's "Hippolyte et Aricie" in Paris in 2012 and a thrillingly vigorous rendition of Handel's "Il Trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno" at the Aix Festival in 2016.

There are ways in which Donald Trump is a kind of Dorian Gray's portrait of J.F.K. — with the same appetitiveness and clannishness (swap Ivanka for R.F.K.) and personal secrets (tax returns for Trump, medical records for Kennedy), but without the youthful looks and eloquence and a patina of intellectualism and idealism to clean those failings up.

Words are the enemy here; with their superimposed elements (in addition to the landscapes, there are multiple eyes, nostrils and mouths) and their greater or lesser degrees of physical defacement (from splits and cuts to children's drawings in felt-tip marker), the portraits brim with a powerful aphasic eloquence, a silent articulation grounded in the tension between material and image.

"We know he was never able to deliver that speech but events that transpired later revealed to Nigerians, the eloquence of his heart, the fidelity of his commitment... Moshood Abiola preferred to die... rather than compromise on your integrity as a people or on your sovereignty as a nation," Hafsat Abiola-Costello said in a moving speech at the event.

By trying to cram in all of Pac's multitudes—his inconsistencies, his conflicting ideas, his various public personas, his political upbringing, his eloquence in the face of a deeply non-progressive society—and losing their nuance along the way, we've ended up with a film that, as Singleton says, feels more like that grim Lifetime Aaliyah film than, say, Selena, Straight Outta Compton or Anton Corbijn's Control.

With a visual eloquence befitting his subject, Haitian filmmaker Peck tells the story of James Baldwin's struggles to wrest meaning from the assassinations of three of his friends: Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. If there is a potential cloud to Oscar night's silver lining, it would be the worry that too often artists of color get the attention of the mainstream only when they take on racism.

As the historian David W. Blight shows in his cinematic and deeply engaging "Frederick Douglass: Prophet of Freedom," white abolitionists like William Lloyd Garrison were smitten with Douglass, instantly recognizing the value of a recruit just out of chains whose eloquence refuted the claim that Negroes were inferior and who could condemn slavery as immoral by drawing on America's founding documents as well as his own bitter experience under the lash.

They have done so by talking with raw, disarming vulnerability and eloquence to a series of interviewers about the wrenching loss of their mother, their stoic if damaging attempts to ignore their own sorrow, and their realization that people everywhere are struggling with sadness: from the wounded soldiers with whom Harry served in Afghanistan to the injured people whom William airlifted in the ambulance service to the young mothers Catherine meets.

Maybe after President Obama's ineffectual eloquence — race relations deteriorated despite his impressive oratory on the subject — and President TrumpDonald John TrumpStates slashed 4,400 environmental agency jobs in past decade: study Biden hammers Trump over video of world leaders mocking him Iran building hidden arsenal of short-range ballistic missiles in Iraq: report MORE's constant turmoil, Bloomberg's undramatic, "steady Eddie," get-things-done character may be just what Americans yearn for.

A variety of opinions is not only absolutely necessary to our natures but is likewise of all things most useful, since if all men were of one mind, there would be no need of councils, no subject of learning and eloquence…Within this process we shall hear one another patiently, put the weight of every man's reason against our own, and at last form a judgment upon the matter which will be honest and commendable.

It's no longer tough to imagine that gelatinous walking frown saying something to the effect of, "We the best / We will cut a frowny face in your chest, little wench / I'm unmentionably fresh, I'm a mensch, get correct," save for the fact that El-P is a wizard and Donald Trump—who, again, is made out of discarded chunks of Jello—has the eloquence of an 11-year-old who's forgotten his homework.

But Scalia's combination of brilliance, eloquence and good timing — he was appointed to the court in 1986, a handful of years after the Federalist Society was founded, and with it the conservative legal movement as we know it — ensured that his ideas, originalism in constitutional law and textualism in statutory interpretation, would set the agenda for a serious judicial conservatism and define the worldview that any "living Constitution" liberal needed to wrestle with in order to justify his own position.
