But to that we need to stop, to listen deeply, to watch with all our senses attuned, to seek out the small and out of the way or overlooked, to redeem with the witness and hand of our love, of God's love all creation as far as our wisdom and ability may carry us and not let politics or other such transitory and manufactured worries block such empathy. Such empathy and respect are timeless lessons, if only we could learn them.
Yet there is also dignity and honor toward those who have come before and the connection between such previous lives and our own is a constant theme in Eiseley's writings as is the dignity and value of each life on it's own no matter how unknown or isolated, brief or small.
The fragility and dynamism of this life, our life, all life, is fully on display in this poem. A fine, clean and tight copy in a fine jacket/brodart covered.
After growing up in Nebrasks, he became an anthropologist, naturalist, professor (at Penn State), philosopher, environmentalist, essayist and poet.
Eiseley was one of those renaissance people. Eiseley published The Cabin in his book of poems - Notes of an Alchemist (1972). 1 Loren Eiseley speaks of his scientific profession as archeologist and anthropologist humbly as that of a bone hunter, yet his writings describe his field discoveries with poetic language and they open onto philosophical reflections on human and nature.
