This essay identifies three recurrent appeals in the discourse of empire. These are presented through explication of Thucydides’ last speech to the Athenian demos, a documentary essay by Max Boot, one of the intellectual architects of the invasion of Iraq, and Edmund Burke’s speech regarding a colonial insurgency, “On Conciliation with America.”
