Poetics of Peace - Peace and the Salt of the Earth

with storyteller and mythologist Michael Meade

Offers surprising insights and comfort in threatening times!

A Poetics of Peace is a unique offering of stories and poems, an examination of culture and ideas in a time of widespread war and increasing fears. This vital discourse seeks to re-imagine culture and opens a conversation that invites youth and requires elders.

Genuine peace requires a poetic basis, a relearning of ways to weave the fragile fabric of culture with threads of imagination, meaning, and healing; not a quick fix or a simple protest, but a reclamation of radical roots and practices that affirm and nourish the genuine spirit of humanity. This is the real battle, the battle for beauty and meaning trying to break through the spells of the obvious and the fogs of war.

Contains: Old Salt Woman and the Origins of Peace Ceremonies; The Old Thief, The Golden Seed, and the Hypocritical Rulers
