As an unrepentant Wordsworthian pantheist (the Wordsworth of 1797 through 1807) and a lover of the poems in The Greek Anthology, I fully concur with Leopardi's thoughts. How far we have fallen! But some may say: "What of Progress?" Ah, yes, "Progress." We now find ourselves in the hands of political, scientific, technological, and media "experts." That seems to be working quite well.
