DuPree has taught at Sewanee: the University of the South, Rutgers Newark, Centenary College of Louisiana, and Pace Academy Atlanta. He now finds a den among the foxes of Oxford, Georgia, along with his wife, four children, two cats, and a dog. DuPree remains a practicing alchemist in the line of dewin Thomas Vaughan

Finally, a poem like “Thinking of Nicholas Cusa” confronts an age-old philosophical question.
