Description
Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 162 p. Meditating on the works of contemporary American poets and environmental activists Gary Snyder and W. S. Merwin, Baris Agir explores the traces of two central cultures, the American Indian and Buddhism, in Snyder's and Merwin's poetics. The book culminates in a discussion of these poets' new mythic sense derived from non-Western origin which ultimately deconstructs the anthropocentric ethics and values of Western culture.
