"Weberian charisma"---GR
The word pervades Weber's work. Have our great Pynchon scholars read more
than
the famous essays of Weber on this topic? (of course, our Jewish Catholic
God-haunted genius would have read
*The Sociology of Religion *...and more? )

This is v good, imo although too much...too many paths.....
But look: a 1968 NYT column (that you can bet TRP read) on the new thing in
politics, charisma. ---the Kennedys
