Editor's Note:
This book is a comparative study of the Tang poet and recluse Han Shan and Gary Snyder, an American poet and environmental activist. Investigating how Snyder interweaves Chinese cultural sources in an eclectic way to impose a sense of place, this book shows how his unique ideogrammatic method know as riprapping, developed as a result of his literary indebtedness to the Oriental tradition and makes for a forceful statement on contemporary ecology. Showing how Han Shan has been revived as an immortal Beat Poet, this work explains how Chan Buddhism has the potential to be recognized as an important voice in contemporary ecopoetry.
