The Tree of Meaning: Language, Mind and Ecology,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Poems, where I come from, writes Robert Bringhurst, are spoken to be written and written to be spoken. The Tree of Meaning is a book of critical prose composed in the same way. Together, these thirteen lectures present a superbly grounded approach to the study of language, focusing on storytelling, mythology, comparative literature, humanity, and the breadth of oral culture. Bringhursts commitment to what he calls ecological linguistics emerges in his studies of Native American art and storytelling, his understanding of poetry, and his championing of a more truly universal conception of what constitutes literature.This collection features a sustained focus on Haida culture, the process of translation, and the relationship between beings and language. Compiling ten years of work, this book is remarkable not only for the cohesion of its authors own ideas, but for the synthesis of such wideranging perspectives and examples of cultures both human and nonhuman. Applying his trademark enthusiasm and ecologically conscious, humanitarian approach, Bringhurst produces a highly personalized and active study of Native American art and literature, world languages, philosophy, and natural history.
