David Hinton is an excellent translator of classical Chinese poetry. I had hoped that this book would say more about the connection between landscape and that tradition. There are glimpses of that here, especially in how he links Chinese pictograms to the meanings they visualize, but for the most part there's too much of the irritating clichés of the Shambhala house style: short nouns lacking articles to create a poetic effect, strings of nature images that give no sense of place, a retreat into generalizations, repetition, and dichotomies. There's a better book in here that seems close to bursting out. A discussion of Tu Fu's "Moonrise" gives an excellent demonstration of how the poem's description of the rising moon on a cold night is all about the concepts of friendship and linked minds. I only wish there had been more of that. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"His broad-ranging discussion offers insight on everything from the mountain landscape to the origins of consciousness and the Cosmos, from geology to Chinese landscape painting, from parenting to pictographic oracle-bone script, to a family chutney recipe. It's a spiritual ecology that is profoundly ancient and at the same time resoundingly contemporary. Your view of the landscape-and of your place in it-may never be the same."
