Visualizing Nature : Essays on Truth, Spirit, and Philosophy, Hardback Book

Visualizing Nature : Essays on Truth, Spirit, and Philosophy Hardback

Edited by Stuart Kestenbaum

Hardback

Description

Starting with Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Nature," Visualizing Nature brings together contemporary visionaries to share deeply personal essays on nature, ecology, sustainability, climate change, philosophy, and more.

Compiled by editor and poet Stuart Kestenbaum, the contributors represent a wide range of backgrounds and experiences, each honoring nature's power to heal, inspire, guide, amaze, and strengthen. Activist Maulian Dana of the Penobscot Nation writes on the intertwining relationship of motherhood and Mother Earth.

Biology professor David Haskell tells the story of the resilient Bristlecone pine trees, living to be as old as 2,100 years.

Iranian scholar Alireza Taghdarreh speaks to her experience of translating Emerson's "Nature" into Farsi.

A previously unpublished 1962 speech by Rachel Carson complements the collection of more than twenty essays, each inviting the reader into a quiet space of reflection with the opportunity to think deeply about how they relate to the natural world.
