Sense of Community in the Work of Gary Snyder
Original language description
This essay examines the concept of community in six selected works by Gary Snyder. Living rooted in a place in symbiosis with the non-human has been a model found in most indigenous cultures and Eastern religious traditions. Snyder?s anthropological scholarship and a life-long involvement with Zen Buddhism have shaped his vision of a sustainable model of living. In his work Snyder convincingly shows that living in a place-based community has not diminished in its importance in the globalized world. Thesense of community in Snyder?s work will be scrutinized from multiple perspectives. Those include Snyder?s understanding of the concept of community and his own role within it, his relation to nature and the non-human, his understanding of the food chainas the key process of energy sharing within a community, and the importance of the sense of place for establishing a lasting community.
