Product Description

内容(「MARC」データベースより)

不屈な精神をはぐくむ たくさんの棘 日々の営みをあたえし ゆたかな緑 夢をみさせてくれる いにしえの歳月 アメリカ現代文学を代表する詩人のライフワーク。エコロジー、仏教思想、能のドラマツルギーが創る野性への旅。 --This text refers to the 単行本 edition.


From Publishers Weekly

A magnificent achievement, this epic poem belies the common take that Snyder's poetic career is notable mainly in the past tense and is refracted by the works of others. Without doubt, Snyder's exploration of nature, Zen Buddhism and his travels through unexplored corners of American society influenced the Beat writers of the 1950s and early 1960s, and some of his early works (Riprap and Cold Mountain Poems, 1965, and Turtle Island, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1975) are masterpieces. This new, vital work sums up stylistic and thematic concerns by uniting 39 poems written between 1956 and 1996 (many published here for the first time) into a seamless whole that, like a modern Leaves of Grass, combines fascination with the varied particulars of the way people live with awe at the majesty of nature. Each of four sections is organized around a familiar Snyder focus: the demands made on people by nature and time ("The road that's followed goes forever;/ in half a minute crossed and left behind"); observation of the terrain he occupies ("Slash of calligraphy of freeways of cars") and various American landscapes ("trucks on the freeways,/ Kenworth, Peterbilt, Mack,/ rumble diesel depths,/ like boulders bumping in an outwash glacial river"); and subtle tributes to those who have survived the last 40 years ("At the end of the ice age/ we are the bears, we are the ravens,/ We are the salmon/ in the gravel/ At the end of an ice age"). A concluding essay, "The Making of Mountain and Rivers Without End," serves as an intellectual mini-autobiography and a gloss on some of the Eastern influences on the poem. This is a major work by a venerable master of post-WWII American poetry.

First Sentence
Clearing the mind and sliding in to that created space, a web of waters streaming over rocks, air misty but not raining, seeing this land from a boat on a lake or a broad slow river, coasting by. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars たしかに 確かに 横に長い山水画のような詩集, 2009/9/2
このレビューの引用元: 終わりなき山河 (単行本)
たしかに 確かに 横に長い山水画のような詩集。
風景が刻々変化するように、遠くなり近くなり言葉の山水画を読むことになる。それは時に深い真理へと私たちを導く…と思いきや迷わす。スナイダーの個の・地球の・宇宙の歴史が山脈に長い年月をかけて詩によって書き、穿たれている詩集だ。
私たちはただ登山者になって詩の山水に遊ぶ…のみ!
