May 18, 2023: These essays explore a range of “wisdom” texts, most ancient, some more recent, some not even of the verbal variety, i.e., plants, cosmic systems, and temporality. They seek to promote a set of reading practices, a way of seeing, that can entice such texts to yield their “hidden secrets,” which can be healing both for us, individually and collectively, and for the earth we are so blithely destroying in our ongoing somnambulance.
