Více o knize
Exploring profound existential questions, the author delves into the interplay of terror, modernity, and tradition through three insightful essays. He examines a banned ritual in Malaysia, retraces Saint-John Perse's historical journey from Beijing to Ulan Bator, and reflects on his travels across the Levant amidst the backdrop of recent American wars. Merrill posits that human actions—ceremony, expedition, and war—shape history and suggests that current political, environmental, and social shifts signal the transition from one era to another.
