Paradise Wild: Reimagining American Nature,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In Paradise Wild, David Oates addresses this and many other provocative questions as he explores the persistent myth of Eden from several different angles.As a lifelong mountaineer and reader of nature literature, as a scholar, as a descendant of naturalist William Bartram, and as a gay exBaptist who took to the mountains to test his masculinity, Oates has thought deeply about how nature and culture interact in our lives and about the contemporary debate over wilderness and environment.Paradise Wild brings all these elements together in a lively, genrehopping book that will move readers emotionally and intellectually, at the same time that it contributes to the ongoing debate in scholarly and environmental circles over the meaning of 'nature' and 'wilderness.'Paradise Wild tells stories, explores major scholarship and literature of nature, and analyzes how the misapplied myth of Eden has mired Americans in a hopeless 'Paradise Lost' mentality that belies the true, everpresent wildness in our lives.Oates argues that mourning for a lost paradise is a dead end that cannot help us combat the real damage we're doing to ourselves and the rest of the world. He proposes a healthy remythologizing of the Eden story as a way of celebrating 'wildness' the Eden in each moment and in each cell, that cannot be lost. His book is about welcoming that wildness into the midst of daily life.This bold and original work will appeal to general readers as well as to scholars and students with an interest in environmental literature and philosophy, nature writing, cultural studies, and queer studies.
