Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Poetics of the Earth is a work of environmental philosophy, based on a synthesis of eastern and western thought on natural and human history. It draws on recent biological research to show how the processes of evolution and history both function according to the same principles. Augustin Berque rejects the separation of nature and culture which he believes lies at the root of the environmental crisis. This book proposes a three stage process of "re-worlding" (moving away from the individualized self to become a part of the common world), "re-concretizing" (understanding the meaning and historical development of words and things) and "re-engaging" (reconsidering the relationship between history and subjectivity at every level of being) in order to bring western thought on nature and culture into sustainable harmony and alignment.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental studies, environmental philosophy, Asian studies and the natural sciences. Poetics of the Earth is a work of environmental philosophy, based on a synthesis of Eastern and Western thought on natural and human history. It draws on recent biological research to show how the processes of evolution and history both function according to the same principles.
