Hunter Austin Mary; Colla A. (cur.); Santopietro A. (cur.) Title : Terra di pioggia rara
Author: Hunter Austin Mary; Colla A. (cur.); Santopietro A. (cur.)
Publisher: Terracqua

Per Mary Hunter Austin (1868-1934) il deserto della California è un luogo di continua scoperta e meraviglia. Una regione, quella della Owens Valley e del deserto del Mojave, che all'epoca era considerata arida, desolata e senza nulla da offrire, ma che si rivela invece, sotto la sua penna, un luogo intriso di vita, storie, leggende e spiritualità. L'autrice, scrittrice prolifica ma anche femminista e studiosa dei popoli nativi, avverte subito una forte affinità con quei territori e da questo rapporto intimo con la terra nasce The Land of Little Rain, pubblicato nel 1903 e considerato una delle opere naturalistiche più importanti della letteratura statunitense. Ognuno dei 14 scritti che compongono la raccolta ci restituisce un vivido spaccato di un paesaggio animato da piante, fiori e animali, ma anche da corsi d'acqua, tempeste, canyon e esseri umani, anch'essi parte integrante dell'ambiente naturale in cui si trovano. Mary Hunter Austin accompagna il lettore in un itinerario suggestivo che trascende qualsiasi cartina geografica per rivelarsi solo a chi sa accogliere e comprendere lo spirito di quei luoghi.

Hunter Austin Mary; Bianchi B. (cur.) Title : La terra delle piogge rare. Ediz. integrale
Author: Hunter Austin Mary; Bianchi B. (cur.)
Publisher: Nova Delphi Libri

Tradotto per la prima volta in Italia, 'La terra delle piogge rare' è un autentico canto d'amore dedicato alla natura. I quattordici scritti che lo compongono ritraggono la terra e gli abitanti delle regioni desertiche della Sierra californiana, e lo rendono uno dei classici della narrativa naturalistica statunitense. Con una prosa sobria ma evocativa, Austin trasporta il lettore nei profondi recessi di quelle terre selvagge, dimostrando una raffinata conoscenza della flora e della fauna che le abitano ed esaltandone al contempo la profonda interdipendenza. Il deserto, la 'terra dei confini perduti', assume per lei la valenza di un rifugio dove ritrovare la libertà dai rigidi confini di genere e identificarsi, quasi per osmosi, con il mondo naturale. In questa sorta di diario minimo l'autrice ci regala anche una serie di riflessioni e aneddoti sulla vita dei nativi, degli immigrati messicani e dei pastori erranti, muovendosi agevolmente tra storia locale, miti e leggende tradizionali.

Freeman Richard Austin; Taylor Mary Title : Yoga. L'arte del Vinyasa. Il risveglio del corpo e della mente con la pratica dell'ashtanga yoga
Author: Freeman Richard Austin; Taylor Mary
Publisher: Edizioni Mediterranee

Lo yoga è una forma d'arte vitale. Praticarlo significa muoversi, respirare, pensare, espandersi e contrarsi, crescere dentro e interagire con il paesaggio complesso e mutevole del mondo che vive dentro e attorno a noi. L'Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga è una forma di yoga codificata all'inizio del Ventesimo secolo da Sri T. Krishnamacharya e dal suo allievo Sri Pattabhi Jois, che prevede una serie specifica di posizioni eseguite secondo una sequenza dinamica e fluida in cui il movimento del corpo è coordinato con lo sguardo e la respirazione. Il processo che si instaura con questa tecnica yoga consente il dialogo tra spinte opposte e complementari per riportare l'armonia. L'esempio più evidente è il movimento della respirazione, composta dall'alternarsi di inspirare ed espirare. Così attraverso la pratica degli esercizi yoga la distrazione viene accolta da una spinta opposta e complementare, i pensieri raggiungono la quiete senza sforzo mentre la mente diventa calma e stabile. Per raggiungere questo stato, gli Autori si concentrano sulle spiegazioni delle forme esteriori della pratica, come il corretto allineamento del corpo e la sequenza dei movimenti nelle posizioni che veramente illuminano e liberano la mente. La sequenza vinyasa yoga presentata in questo saggio viene suddivisa secondo le forme: posizioni erette, piegamenti in avanti, inarcamenti, torsioni, posizioni in equilibrio e posizioni finali. Allineamento, anatomia e immaginazione sono tutti elementi che si allineano nell'asana, che a sua volta rivela l'esperienza diretta della natura sia del corpo che della mente. Con pa

Austin Mary Title : Le strade delle montagne
Author: Austin Mary
Publisher: Edizioni dei Cammini

Nata nel 1868, Mary Austin conosceva il deserto californiano come nessun altro. La sua prima produzione letteraria si inserisce nel filone naturalistico tracciato da Henry David Thoreau, John Burroughs e John Muir. Ma, a differenza di Thoreau, Mary Austin non era un'anima solitaria e non era neppure una creatura dei boschi come Muir. Per lei ogni paesaggio, seppur disabitato, era popolato da creature bellissime e straordinarie: fiori, piante, animali, corsi d'acqua, pesci e poi profumi, luci, venti e spiriti. Ogni luogo le si rivelava così nella sua interezza: magico e mistico, ma anche profondamente naturale ed eloquente. 'The Land of Little Rain '- pubblicato nel 1903 - fu la sua prima opera e le diede un immediato successo. Da questa raccolta sono tratti i tre racconti.

Austin Mary Hunter, Feller Walter (PHT) Title : The Land of Little Rain
Author: Austin Mary Hunter, Feller Walter (PHT)
Publisher: Counterpoint

Mary Austin’s Land of Little Rain, first published in 1903, is considered by many to be one of the foundational texts in environmental writing, now studied as a classic in the literature that sought to describe the complexity of the American continent. Like John Muir, who wrote so intimately of the High Sierra that vast acreages have been preserved through the knowledge he shared, the work of Mary Austin has allowed those who will never travel there a deep feeling for the special beauties of the Southwest. Her poetic sensibility expressed in an inimitable prose paint a timeless portrait of that vast dry expanse, the Mojave northward from the Mexican border to Death Valley, with the Eastern Sierra to the west and the Colorado River to the east.

This new large format edition includes all of the original text together with the intimate color work of noted photographer Walter Feller, a lifelong admirer of Austin’s writing. He has spent years photographing the American Southwest, bringing to life the region’s vital landscape and wildlife in images of astonishing beauty.

Austin Joanne P., Guiley Rosemary Ellen (EDT) Title : ESP, Psychokinesis, and Psychics
Author: Austin Joanne P., Guiley Rosemary Ellen (EDT)
Publisher: Facts on File

An essential resource for readers fascinated by clairvoyance, telekinesis, and the powers of the mind.

Many people have experienced psi, whether as a sense of having been in a place before (déjà vu), hearing a voice in their head that gave them guidance, or following their intuition. For some, these events can be attributed to coincidence, but for psychics, such episodes occur more frequently and intensely, often manifesting in dreams, trances, signs, or sensations.

ESP, Psychokinesis, and Psychics explores the people who profess to have such talents and surveys the different ways of reading psychic signs. It examines the skeptics and organizations who investigate supernatural phenomena and expose possible fraud and looks at how the media portray psychic phenomena in everything from Harry Potter gazing into the Pensieve to TV shows like Ghost Whisperer and Medium to psychic crime fighters. This fascinating resource also gives readers the information they need to test and develop their own psychic abilities.

Chapters include:
  • Psychics: Who Are They and What Do They Do?
  • Psychic Abilities, or How Do They Do That?
  • Testing, Testing, or Does Psi Really Exist?
  • Becoming a Psychic
  • Talking and Listening to the Animals.

Austin Mary Hunter, Hass Robert (INT) Title : The Land of Little Rain
Author: Austin Mary Hunter, Hass Robert (INT)
Publisher: Modern Library

“Between the high Sierras south from Yosemite—east and south over a very great assemblage of broken ranges beyond Death Valley, and on illimitably into the Mojave Desert” is the territory that Mary Austin calls the Land of Little Rain. In this classic collection of meditations on the wonders of this region, Austin generously shares “such news of the land, of its trails and what is astir in them, as one lover of it can give to another.” Her vivid writings capture the landscape—from burnt hills to sun-baked mesas—as well as the rich variety of plant and animal life, and the few human beings who inhabit the land, including cattlemen, miners, and Paiute Indians. This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the original 1903 edition.

Austin Mary Hunter Title : The Basket Woman
Author: Austin Mary Hunter
Publisher: Univ of Nevada Pr

Cocky young glaciers, contemplative pine trees, resourceful ancient Paiutes, and rabbits too clever for their own good. Through the kindly but mysterious Basket Woman, they all become the companions and teachers of Alan, the young son of homesteaders in early Nevada. The Basket Woman, a keeper of her people's traditions, doesn't simply tell stories: She transports her young friend into powerful mythic tales, where Alan learns the secret of the trees and animals and the wisdom of the people who flourished in this 'land of little rain' before the arrival of foreigners from the East.
While the stories make delightful and instructive reading for children, on another level they are an intense examination of the dramatic implications of a legacy of conquest upon the land and its native peoples. At eighteen, Mary Austin herself homesteaded in California during a catastrophic drought. These stories were written during her sometimes desperate life as a young mother and wife of a failed water developer in the region east of the Sierra Nevada. The proceeds of their publication in eastern magazines and later as a school text kept Austin's bankrupt family going.

Austin Mary Hunter Title : The Ford
Author: Austin Mary Hunter
Publisher: Univ of California Pr

Mary Austin's 1917 novel illuminates one of the crucial issues in California history--the usurpation of water from the Owens Valley. Ranging from the eastern Sierra to the financial district in San Francisco, the plot portrays the frenzied speculation in land and resources, labor protests, and feminist organizing of the time, exemplified in the successful efforts of an independent young woman to buy back her family's Owens Valley ranch.
