Four perspectives on Esther: Achashveirosh, Mordechai, Haman, neis. Perek 1 as the perek of Achashveirosh. One global problem with the perek, plus six specific kushyos. Rav Yaacov Kaminetsky and the tzitzis party. Constitutional monarchy vs. absolute monarchy. "The Achashveirosh Within", and anava as the prelude to the Megilla-wide journey to discover and uncover Hashem in our lives.
