Tawny Grammar (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Gary Snyder | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Joining Wendell Berry's Think Little in the inaugural season of the new Counterpoints series, Gary Snyder's Tawny Grammar is a moving argument for the interconnectedness of nature and culture, language and landscape Designed and priced for point-of-sale, the Counterpoints series will feature essays, poems, and stories from Wendell Berry, Gary Snyder, Mary Robison, Betty Fussell, MFK Fisher, and many more To Snyder, grammar is written in the earth, a physical text of information stored through time: The stratigraphy of rocks, layers of pollen in a swamp, the outward expanding circles in the trunk of a tree, can be seen as texts. The calligraphy of rivers winding back and forth over the land leaving layer upon layer of traces of previous riverbeds is texts. For fans of Annie Dillard, Suzannah Lessard, Edward Abbey, or Terry Tempest Williams
