Reflecting the currently growing eco-movement, this book presents to western readers Tao Yuanming, an ancient Chinese poet, as a representative of classical oriental natural philosophy who offered lived experience of dwelling poetically on earth. Drawing on Derridas specter theory, it interprets Tao Yuanming in a postmodern and eco-critical context, while also exploring his naturalist kindred spirits in other countries, so as to urge the people of today to contemplate their own existence and pursuits. The books panoramic table of contents offers readers a wonderful reading experience.
