Bibliographic Details
Book DescriptionHarpercollins, 1996-05. Hardcover. Very Good. Some wear, Good Condition, Book summaryThomas Moore advocates an engaged enchantment with specific aspects of daily life such as clothing, food, furniture, work, architecture, ecology, language, and politics. He describes the renaissance these can undergo when there is genuine engagement with beauty, craft, nature, and art in both private and public life. Moore claims that the spiritual and soulful values of life are best exemplified by things such as enchanted nature, a fantasy-filled childhood, intimate neighborhoods and homes, and a public life dedicated to the needs of the heart.Media Reviews"Profound yet practical...this important book will dare many to believe that life really is full of enchantment." -- Publishers Weekly "Bestselling spiritual writer Moore offers sage guidance on how to develop a sense of wonder in a jaded world...stimulating reading..." -- Kirkus Publisher NotesThomas Moore applies the "care of the soul" to our surroundings and the concrete particulars of how we live. Starting from the premise that we can no longer afford to live in a disenchanted world, Moore shows that a profound enchanted engagement with life is not a childish thing to be put away with adulthood, but a necessity for our personal and collective survival.
