This study examines the basic ideas of the wilderness ethic and analyzes their role in giving form and definition to human encounters with nature. There are four chapters in the study. Chapter I "Sacred Space and Geopiety" uses concepts derived from phenomenology of religion to consider the wilderness ethic as a belief system and wilderness purists as a community of believers. This section attempts to define key terms, to establish the nature and characteristics of sacred space, to describe the fundamental assumptions about man/environment relations which underlie the wilderness ethic, and to sketch the social characteristics of the community of Wilderness purists. Chapter II "Object and Subject in Reciprocal Relation: Inward Action" considers the process by which individual experience is generalized to a group mode of perception by means of the development and dissemination of wilderness imagery. Verbal and visual images lend significant form to individual feelings and help define the wilderness experience as an event central to one's inner life. Chapter III "Object and Subject in Reciprocal Relation: Outward Action" discusses the political implications of inward action. Individual behavior in wilderness and group political action on behalf of preservationist goals are shown to be dependent on wilderness imagery for conceptual definition and for public visibility. Chapter IV presents a summary and conclusions, in the form of six themes which characterize the wilderness preservation movement as a belief system and as a political program. (Author/RM)

Famed historian of religion Mircea Eliade observes that even moderns who proclaim themselves residents of a completely profane world are still unconsciously nourished by the memory of the sacred. Eliade traces manifestations of the sacred from primitive to modern times in terms of space, time, nature, and the cosmos. In doing so he shows how the total human experience of the religious man compares with that of the nonreligious. This book serves as an excellent introduction to the history of religion, but its perspective also emcompasses philosophical anthropology, phenomenology, and psychology. It will appeal to anyone seeking to discover the potential dimensions of human existence. -- P. [4] of cover.

Linda Greenlaw hadn't been blue-water fishing for ten years, since the great events chronicled in The Perfect Storm and The Hungry Ocean, when an old friend offered her the captaincy on his boat, Seahawk, for a season of swordfishing. She took the bait, of course, and thus opened a new chapter in a life that had already seen enough adventure for three lifetimes.The Seahawk turns out to be the rustiest of buckets, with sprung, busted, and ancient equipment guaranteed to fail at any critical moment. Life is never dull out on the Grand Banks, and no one is better at capturing the flavor and details of the wild ride that is swordfishing, from the technical complexities of longline fishing and the nuances of reading the weather and waves to the sheer beauty of the open water. The trip is full of surprises, "a bit hardier and saltier than I had hoped for," but none more unexpected than when the boat's lines inadvertently drift across the Canadian border and she lands in jail. Seaworthy is about nature -- human and other; about learning what you can control and what you do when fate takes matters out of your control. It's about how a middle-aged woman who sets a high bar for herself copes with challenge and change and frustration, about the struggle to succeed or fail on your own terms, and above all, about learning how to find your true self when you're caught between land and sea.
