Synopsis
Explores the role of a significant yet elusive feature of the French landscape in literature, philosophy, and art. What does it mean to love a landscape? Why do certain authors have a predilection for specific landscapes? Why might one be fascinated by a landscape in which one would never wish to live? How does the lay of the land fashion the form of the poem? How does the wind infuse the breath? In The Wind and the Source, Allen S. Weiss explores the role of a significant yet elusive feature of the French landscape in literature, philosophy, and art: the legendary, mysterious, monolithic Mont Ventoux. This is not a book about picturesque, touristic Provence, but about the manifestation of an extreme limit of the imagination that happens to have Provence as its site, as its fantasyland. Weiss is concerned with the vicissitudes of the desire to write about a landscape, the desire to write in a landscape, and perhaps most curiously, the desire to write against a landscape. This is a book about love of the landscape, and abstraction from it; it is an account of how a mountain became a myth, and how an aesthetic and literary study became a metaphysical quest., What does it mean to love a landscape?

    fairly happy with the transaction. no issues. although i do believe this product originally comes with a micro sd (which was not present when i bought) item was described as open box and i should have no problem acquiring my own micro sd so all is well. arrived in timely manner and seller is responsive. besides it having no micro sd the item is in great condition (for the record the micro sd was never advertised)

    Good value and quality for the money. Packaged with enormous care which it is to be immensely appreciated, I wish all other vendors were like this. It's appearance is impeccable and its condition is as advertised. Came promptly without delays. Very satisfied receiving the product as advertised.
