| Summary, etc | Charm, persuasion, the ability to create illusions: these are some of the dazzling gifts of the Seducer, the compelling figure who manipulates, misleads, and gives pleasure all at once. When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections, and captivated great minds. A mesmerizing encore to the bestselling the 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction is a masterful synthesis of the legacies of civilizations greatest seducers--from Cleopatra to JFK--and the philosophies of important intellectuals on the subject, including everyone from Freud to Kierkegaard and Ovid to Casanova, as well as the classic literature of seduction. Robert Greene once again identifies the rules of a timeless, amoral game and explores how to cast a spell, break down resistance, and ultimately compel a target to surrender. Here Greene unearths the two sides of seduction--the Characters and the Process. First discover who you or your pursuer most resembles (the Rake? The Siren? The Coquette?), then immerse yourself in the twenty-four maneuvers and strategies of the Seductive Process, the ritual by which seducers gain mastery over their targets. Every bit as essential as The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer on the essence of one of history's greatest weapons and the ultimate form of power |
