Friends,

    Has there ever been a serious study of the myriad themes and elaborate
symbolism in the play of Dr. Talos in _Claw of the Conciliator_? I've read it
several times over, yet still cannot understand the symbolic qualities of
certain roles. All in all, however, the play is a work genius, but the arcane
style eludes me.
