"Douglas Todd has assembled some of Cascadia's best thinkers, essayists and poets to show how the Pacific Northwest's stunning wilderness and intricate ecology have inspired modern environmental movements, a self-reliant secular spirituality, ethnic pluralism and rugged independence. As this volume reveals, something spectacular is going on in Cascadia." -- Rex Weyler, author of Greenpeace: The Inside Story and The Jesus Sayings Students of British Columbia should have this book in their personal libraries.

Synopsis
This collection explores the unique spirituality and culture of Cascadia, which includes British Columbia, Washington and Oregon. Envied around the world, Cascadia is famous for its mountains, evergreens, and livable cities. Less well known is that Cascadia is home to the least institutionally religious people on the continent. Despite this, Cascadia: The Elusive Utopia argues that most of the region' s 14 million residents feel deeply " spiritual." Many gain their sense of the sacred from the spectacular and imposing land.Brought together by critically acclaimed Vancouver Sun writer Douglas Todd, 15 leading writers, scholars, bio-regionalists, pollsters, aboriginals, economists, philosophers and literary specialists explain how the Pacific Northwest is nurturing a unique " spirituality of place," which could become a model for the planet.In this book readers will find a vision of a healthy future: an elusive utopia. Canadian and American contributors include historian Jean Barman, Canadian poet laureate George Bowering, political philosopher Philip Resnick, religion scholar Patricia O' Connell Killen and American-Canadian eco-thinker Sallie McFague., This collection explores the unique spirituality and culture of Cascadia, which includes British Columbia, Washington and Oregon.

In this book readers will find a vision of a healthy future: an elusive utopia. Canadian and American contributors include historian Jean Barman, Canadian poet laureate George Bowering, political philosopher Philip Resnick, religion scholar Patricia O' Connell Killen and American-Canadian eco-thinker Sallie McFague., This book will appeal to anyone who wants to understand the unique culture and spirituality of the fast-growing Pacific Northwest, which includes British Columbia, Washington and Oregon. Envied by people around the world, Cascadia, as it is known, is remarkable for its famed mountains, evergreens, eagles, beaches and livable cities. Most people, however, do not realize that Cascadia, named after the region's "cascading" waterfalls, is also home to the least institutionally religious people on the continent. Despite their unusual resistance to old ways of doing religion, Cascadia: The Elusive Utopia argues that most of the 14 million residents of this rugged land are eclectically, informally, often deeply "spiritual." One could not ask for more insightful Canadians and Americans to explain in lively detail how people in the Pacific Northwest get a sense of belonging out of finding fresh ways to experience the sacred. They do so particularly through the land, which in Cascadia, unlike in most parts of North America, is untamed and spectacular. Many find it overwhelming, humbling. In this original book, 15 leading writers, historians, bio-regionalists, pollsters, scholars, economists, philosophers, eco-theologians, literary analysts and poets explain how the Pacific Northwest is nurturing a unique "spirituality of place, ." which could become a model for the planet. Brought together by critically-acclaimed Vancouver Sun spirituality writer Douglas Todd, the gifted contributors to this book highlight Cascadians' unusually strong attraction to personal freedom, do-it-yourself optimism, "secular-but-spiritual" nature reverence and envisioning a healthy future that's never before been realized: an elusive utopia. Contributors include noted historian Jean Barman, Canadian poet laureate George Bowering, political philosopher Philip Resnick, religion scholar Patricia O'Connell Killen and American-Canadian eco-theologian Sallie McFague.

- s***n (409)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufJust as described, book was like new. Item shipped in a box, great!, however, the box was much bigger than the book with nothing to hold the book inside so it got banged around inside the box during shipping. Used boxes that fit better or packaging material.

Quick shipping and VERY well packed. Thanks!
