The Sanctuary: Essays on Eco-Mythology

Sofia Batalha

4.9/5 (24838 ratings)

Description:In this collection of revived Portuguese eco-mythologies, Sofia invites us moderns to reconsider our relationship with the living landscape. The invitation is a profound gesture of soul-recovery, for the ideologies of denial underpinning modernity do not give credence to such stories; there is no seeing, no affection for, and no chance for participation with the other-than-human world or the spiritual dimensions holding all worlds together. Our souls yearn to consciously travel the intricate webs of intersubjective relationships weaving coherence from chaos while all around, there throbs a mutual craving for attention and enlivenment. These stories are rooted here. Storied landscapes alive and pulsing with meaning invite participatory ways of living in and with the world that are as ancient as we are. Through holding to a vibrant oral tradition in partnership with Place, Australian Aborigines have kept alive stories that date back tens of thousands of years, while global moderns have sought to dismiss such traditions as outdated and primitive. Depriving cultural renewal of deep historical roots makes the past irrelevant to the modern mind; losing the relevance of continuity sets moderns adrift on an ocean of meaninglessness. Foregoing integrity tears holes in the fabric of existence which is now unraveling all around.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
