Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. Richardson, C.S. (book design) Ilustrador. New condition forest green cloth boards with gold spine lettering contained in a new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Preliminary Page Quotes; Author Dedication; Introduction by Graeme Gibson; Bibliography/Text Acknowledgments; Image Acknowledgments; Author's Acknowledgments; Index of Contributions; Helping Birds in Peril; and About the Author. Illustrated with color paintings, a multi-page color frontispiece painting and two-color front and rear endpaper illustrations. "In this stunning assemblage of words and images, novelist and avid birdwatcher Graeme Gibson has crafted an extraordinary tribute to the venerable relationship between humans and birds. Birds have ever been the symbols of ourhighest aspirations. As divine messengers, symbols of our yearning for the heavens, or avatars of glorious song and colour, they have stirred our imaginations for the moment we first looked into the sky. Whether as the Christian dove, or Quetzalcoatl - the Aztec Plumed Serpent - or in Plato's vision of the human soul grouwing wings and feathers, religion and philosophy have looked to birds as representatives of our better selves - that part of us not bound to the earth. With the passion of a birdwathcer and harder of words, Gibson has spent fifteen years collecting the literary and artistic forms our affinity for birds has taken over the centuries. Birds appear again and again in mythology and folk tales, and in literature by writers as diverse as Ovid, Thomas Hardy, Kafka, Thoreau and T.S. Eliot. They've been omens, allegories, disguises and guides; they've been worshipped, eaten, feared and loved. Nor does Gibson forget the fascination they hold for science, as the Galapagos finches did for Darwin. Birds figure charmingly and tellingly in the work of such nature writers as Gilbert White, Peter Matthiessen, Farley Mowat and Barry Lopez. Gorgeously illustrated, woven from centuries of human response to the delights of the feathered tribes, The Bedside Book of Birds is for anyone who is aware of birds, and for everyone who is intrigued by the artistic forms that humanity has created to represent its soul." - from the inner front jacket flap.
