Book excerpt: Walk into this communing poetisphere as if you are heading out to Mother Nature. Behold a daisy whose eye is ardent as a miniature sun, a purple columbine whose dark beauty makes a witching hour of noon, a scarlet tulip that bursts open like the Big Bang...Everything connects tentacularly to everything: the Canadian goldenrod defies its stereotype as a bio-invasive by weaving homophonic entanglements between "guilt" and "gilt", the gold thread stringing all life together. Then, wade through once-pristine cyclical time into deeper waters of nature's grief and joy - "weather-sorrow" of seasonal harmony jangled by climate crisis; rapport with a cat shivering in winter predawn. Philosophical meditations on being ensue, proceeding to where thought translates into action.The book ends on memory, mourning, and protest: a "saga" to commemorate a sweet gean tree that grew up symbiotically with the speaker and was callously mangled by horticulture. The overlapping, looping structure of the sonnet crown insists that each single being is uniquely significant and each loss extraordinary. Synthesizing air of a Romantic imagination, moisture of a Victorian naturalist's empathic curiosity, and essential minerals of an innovative ecopoetics, Convivial Communiverse respires like a plant that "worlds its own world", exemplifying lessons of love and ethical existence.

Book Synopsis Fire in the Minds of Men by : James H. Billington
Download or read book Fire in the Minds of Men written by James H. Billington and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1999 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the origins of a faith--perhaps the faith of the century. Modern revolutionaries are believers, no less committed and intense than were Christians or Muslims of an earlier era. What is new is the belief that a perfect secular order will emerge from forcible overthrow of traditional authority. This inherently implausible idea energized Europe in the nineteenth century, and became the most pronounced ideological export of the West to the rest of the world in the twentieth century. Billington is interested in revolutionaries--the innovative creators of a new tradition. His historical frame extends from the waning of the French Revolution in the late eighteenth century to the beginnings of the Russian Revolution in the early twentieth century. The theater was Europe of the industrial era; the main stage was the journalistic offices within great cities such as Paris, Berlin, London, and St. Petersburg. Billington claims with considerable evidence that revolutionary ideologies were shaped as much by the occultism and proto-romanticism of Germany as the critical rationalism of the French Enlightenment. The conversion of social theory to political practice was essentially the work of three Russian revolutions: in 1905, March 1917, and November 1917. Events in the outer rim of the European world brought discussions about revolution out of the school rooms and press rooms of Paris and Berlin into the halls of power. Despite his hard realism about the adverse practical consequences of revolutionary dogma, Billington appreciates the identity of its best sponsors, people who preached social justice transcending traditional national, ethnic, and gender boundaries. When this book originally appeared The New Republic hailed it as "remarkable, learned and lively," while The New Yorker noted that Billington "pays great attention to the lives and emotions of individuals and this makes his book absorbing." It is an invaluable work of history and contribution to our understanding of political life.

Book Synopsis Mediterranean Diasporas by : Maurizio Isabella
Download or read book Mediterranean Diasporas written by Maurizio Isabella and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mediterranean Diasporas looks at the relationship between displacement and the circulation of ideas within and from the Mediterranean basin in the long 19th century. In bringing together leading historians working on Southern Europe, the Balkans, and the Ottoman Empire for the first time, it builds bridges across national historiographies, raises a number of comparative questions and unveils unexplored intellectual connections and ideological formulations. The book shows that in the so-called age of nationalism the idea of the nation state was by no means dominant, as displaced intellectuals and migrant communities developed notions of double national affiliations, imperial patriotism and liberal imperialism. By adopting the Mediterranean as a framework of analysis, the collection offers a fresh contribution to the growing field of transnational and global intellectual history, revising the genealogy of 19th-century nationalism and liberalism, and reveals new perspectives on the intellectual dynamics of the age of revolutions.
