DOWNLOAD EBOOKA collection of philosophical essays on place and nature, featuring beautiful paintings and drawings. What is the effect of light as it measures the seasons? How does light leave different traces on the terrain—on a Pacific Island, in the Aegean Sea, high in the Alps, or in the forest? John Sallis considers the expansiveness of nature and the range of human vision in essays about the effect of light and luminosity on place. Sallis writes movingly of nature and the elements, employing an enormous range of philosophical, geographical, and historical knowledge. Paintings and drawings by Alejandro A. Vallega illuminate the text, accentuating the interaction between light and environment. “A profound and exceptionally nuanced piece of writing that brings philosophy and art into close proximity. Decades of Sallis’s remarkable philosophical thinking are at work and play.” —Jason M. Wirth, Seattle University “Beautifully conceived and written. Sallis engages the elemental interplay of earth and sky, translucence and obscurity, airiness and density, height and depth, wet and dry, gods and mortals, storms and clouds, rivers and fog, plains and mountains–nature in its expansive, indefinable materiality and ephemeral intangibility.” —Charles E. Scott, Vanderbilt University
