"From the standpoint of the 70's ad 80's it serves us well to examine the way we relate..." to the world---animal, vegetable, mineral. Snyder rethinks the American Way, with Coyote, mythic guru of Native Americans, as his guide. D. A. Levy, a poet dead in the turbulent '60's, translates: "the traditions we follow / make the gods look young." Being is contemplation (zen); feeling is sight (intuition); saying and doing are one (ethnopoetic reinhabitation). Snyder explores landscapes within, alternatives to the industrial inferno, the logistics of modern conquistadors. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"'Mankind has a rendezvous with destiny in Outer Space.' Some say. We are already travelling in space. This is the galaxy, right here. The wisdom and skill of those who studied the universe first hand, by direct knowledge and experience, for millennia, both inside and outside themselves, is what we might call the Old Ways. Those who envision a possible future planet on which we continue that study, and where we live by the Green and the Sun, have no choice but to bring whatever science, imagination, strength, and political finesse they have to the support of the inhabitory people - natives and peasants of the world. Entering such paths, we begin to learn a little of the Old Ways, which are outside of history, and forever new." Here are six brief approaches to the old ways via poetry, myth, and sense of place. - Back cover. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
