Le Pitch

Présentation de l'éditeur "The greatest of living nature poets. . . . It helps us to go on, having Gary Snyder in our midst."--Los Angeles Times. Snyder is the author of many volumes of poetry and prose, including The Practice of the Wild and the Pulitzer Prize-winning Turtle Island. Reading tour. Extrait HOW POETRY COMES TO ME It comes blundering over the Boulders at night, it stays Frightened outside the Range of my campfire I go to meet it at the Edge of the light SURROUNDED BY WILD TURKEYS Little calls as they pass through dry forbs and grasses Under blue oak and gray digger pine In the warm afternoon of the forest-fire haze; Twenty or more, long-legged birds all alike. So are we, in our soft calling, passing on through. Our young, which trail after, Look just like us. THOUGHTS ON LOOKING AT A SAMUEL PALMER ETCHING AT THE TATE Moonlight landscape, sheep, and shepherds watching eerie beauty The broad sheep backs resting bunched up under leafy oaks or hid in black moon shadow, Lives of cows and sheep— calf mouth that sucks your finger the steer that pokes his head through pipe iron gate to lick lapel, and lightly touch and taste the buttons of your coat, Cows that trail you are as you cross the meadow; & silent sheep slow heads turning solemn faces hooves fringed in dewy grass. They stamp and steam in chilly morn and gaze at length on clouds and hills before they board the truck. Biographie de l'auteur GARY SNYDER is a poet, essayist, lecturer, and environmental activist. His accolades include the Pulitzer Prize for poetry (1975), the American Book Award (1984), the Bollingen Prize for Poetry (1997), the John Hay Award for Nature Writing (1997), and the Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize (2008). Often associated with the Beat Generation and the San Francisco Renaissance, he is known as “the Poet Laureate of Deep Ecology,” and his poetry reflects an immersion in both Buddhist spirituality and nature. Snyder has translated literature into English from ancient Chinese and modern Japanese. For many years, Snyder served as a faculty member at the University of California, Davis, and he also served for a time on the California Arts Council. Afficher moins Afficher plus
