      Description

      The poem ‘Six Curses’ is structured into six stanzas, each raising an ethical problem by the use of imagery, and providing an ethical answer or position from which to view that ethical problem. It raises social behaviours which include the competitive pursuit of power, infidelity as a narcissistic decision, and finally, the desire within fundamentalism for ‘certainty’. It suggests that certainty is inherently flawed as a restricted and non-holistic perspective.

      Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.

      These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.

      Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
