Book Synopsis Pilgrim of the Clouds by : Hongdao Yuan
Download or read book Pilgrim of the Clouds written by Hongdao Yuan and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yüan Hung-tao (1568-1610) was the greatest poet of Ming-Dynasty China. His poetry and essays brilliantly exhibit an originality and vitality that were lacking in the writing of his contemporaries. In an age that looked to the masters of the Han and T'ang dynasties for inspiration, Yüan believed that "as the ways of society undergo change, literature must follow suit. So it is natural that the present need not imitate the past". Presented for the first time in English translation, the writings of Yüan and his two brothers reveal these men to have been individualists who made outstanding contributions to the growth and development of poetry in their country. Unlike most other Ming poets, they were not afraid to look critically at the world around them, thus presenting a penetrating picture of Ming society as well as producing both poetry and prose of surpassing beauty and freshness.

Book Synopsis Pilgrim at Tinker Creek by : Annie Dillard
Download or read book Pilgrim at Tinker Creek written by Annie Dillard and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize “The book is a form of meditation, written with headlong urgency, about seeing. . . . There is an ambition about her book that I like. . . . It is the ambition to feel.” — Eudora Welty, New York Times Book Review Pilgrim at Tinker Creek is the story of a dramatic year in Virginia's Roanoke Valley, where Annie Dillard set out to chronicle incidents of "beauty tangled in a rapture with violence." Dillard's personal narrative highlights one year's exploration on foot in the Virginia region through which Tinker Creek runs. In the summer, she stalks muskrats in the creek and contemplates wave mechanics; in the fall, she watches a monarch butterfly migration and dreams of Arctic caribou. She tries to con a coot; she collects pond water and examines it under a microscope. She unties a snake skin, witnesses a flood, and plays King of the Meadow with a field of grasshoppers. The result is an exhilarating tale of nature and its seasons.

Book Synopsis All the Good Pilgrims by : Robert Ward
Download or read book All the Good Pilgrims written by Robert Ward and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Ward has always enjoyed travelling, especially on foot. When he discovered the ancient pilgrimage route to Santiago in Spain, he felt compelled to walk and experience this historic road. From his first journey along the Camino de Santiago, Ward fell in love with the pace, landscape, history, art, and romance of this old pilgrimage path. Above all, however, Ward fell in love with the people of the Camino – both the welcoming Spaniards and the pilgrims who come from all over the world to find out what it means to travel five hundred miles, one step at a time. In All the Good Pilgrims, Ward returns to Spain to walk the Camino for the fifth time. He thinks he knows what he’s getting into but, as his many Camino journeys have taught him, the Camino never runs out of surprises. Each day brings new lessons, friendships, questions, memories, gifts and challenges, reminding Ward that it isn’t the pilgrim who walks the Camino – it’s the Camino that walks the pilgrim. An engaging travel narrative, All the Good Pilgrims is a personal and insightful tour of the Camino de Santiago, as Ward takes readers on a secular pilgrimage in which he reflects on his past journeys and contemplates the mysterious and enduring allure of this ancient and historic road.
