Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Guy B. Stiles' work spans several decades. His published works include The Oranges from Santo Domingo, Letters to Ezra and Walking on the World. He is a metaphysical philosopher poet and essayist influenced by poets, as well as religious, scientific and philosophical thinkers. He is in the school of Wallace Stevens, Ronald Collins and William Bronk. He is not part of academia and has been an independent thinker and writer because of that. Guy, now in his eighties, lives in Puerto Rico with his wife, Sari. Reflections on the 1991 publication of Stiles' The Oranges from Santo Domingo: "I was very pleased to have the book and enjoyed reading it. You write plainly and clearly with your heart and mind both in it." William Bronk, American Book Award winning poet "They startle me with their insights and calm me with their profundity. I like the way he makes concentrated language feel as easy as the truest idiom. The Biblical, Greek and existential so assimilated into his awareness that they seem like just other neighbors." A. R. Ammons, National Book Award for Poetry winner Response to the 2015 publication of Letters to Ezra and Walking on the World: "Letters to Ezra forced me to reexamine how we got to where we are. Then Walking on the World placed your thinking in a wider context that encompasses all of what we can know. Thoroughly enjoyable and provoking." Ronald W. Collins, Scientist and Poet This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Initially conceived as a poem, this book was written as a response to the author's reading of The Gentle Puritan, A Life of Ezra Stiles, 1727-1795 by Edmund S. Morgan, a Yale University historian. An indirect descendant, the author first learned about Ezra Stiles from family hearsay. After reading the biography he began to think through the idea of telling Ezra about the world he lives in here in the 21th century. This book is the result. This work reflects a 21th century look at many of the themes that concerned Ezra Stiles in his own lifetime. Ezra, a Congregational minister and President of Yale College from 1778 to 1795, was an 18th century American intellectual interested in religion, science, history and the politics of his new American Republic. The author of this book, himself a child of the Enlightenment which had its beginnings in Ezra's time, offers his own way of viewing all these themes. This item is printed on demand.
