Rodney Stenning Edgecombe has used Nemerov's concern with the image and the law as a radial center for his study, hoping in some measure to offset the sequential plod of the reader's guide format. It is as much a unifying factor in the first collection as in the last. Without especially wanting to, Nemerov seems to have realized an important ideal of the rhetors, that of marrying consistency with variousness.
