Take a Breath
A collection of narrative poetry, that is also figurative, introspective and occasionally recalls Haiku-like aphorisms.
Negative Space
Negative Space, in art, is that part of the image that is not the topic, per se, of the picture. This concept has evolved from prehistoric art (positive space plus blank background) through abstract art (no recognizable features). Photography and Contemporary Figurative Art have raised ontological issues, that are introduced and confronted, initially, in this volume.
Who Are You?
The word SELF started as a referent to the individual. Historically, that expanded into many subjective aspects. Eventually it comprised comparison to OTHER selves. This inflation of meanings is reviewed for clarification.
Anapoetry
A short reflection on the origins of poetry and how that influenced poetic styles. Examples of original free verse poetry and some experimental attempts at a poetry of science.
Wilderness Tales
Two primitive Russian tales, originating in the Eurasian taigas amongst the indigenous Siberian peoples, from whom both the Slavic peoples and the Bering Strait migrants probably arose. The seemingly simple, straightforward narratives belie complex interpretations of primitive, but basically human personal and spiritual development. The contrived narrative of ambulatory trees is similar, but reflects the other end of the spectrum, giving life to modern animism rooted in modern science as well as New Age Holism and Eastern 'Oneness'.
NEUROPHYSIOLOGY
An introduction to the nervous system, which began as a course designed for graduate teachers and psychologists working with neurologically handicapped individuals; has been expanded to aid those interested in functions of the mind, attempting to provide a platform for integration with neuro-philosophy.
Beyond a Persimmon
Narrative poetry in the postmodern style. The verse is not strictly formal, nor does it rhyme, though there is frequent slant rhyme and consonantal alliteration. The rhythm is basically iambic pentameter, except where it needs not to be.
Taste of the Tatras
Reviewing family recipes leads to reflections on acculturation and analysis of the baking process and the influence of individual ingredients on a delicate end product.
Shades of Meaning
Where does meaning come from? How do children learn meaning? Do synonyms mean the same thing? What's the difference between antonyms and negations? What's the difference between synonyms that do not mean the same thing? Are there axioms? How are truths self-evident? These and more questions are approached in SHADES of MEANING.
Ekphrasis
A volume of poetry inspired by other art forms. An alternate way of creating art. A review of the historical meaning of the term.
