As the humane race we always see ourselves evolving, uncovering something new, adventures into the unknown. As he was talking about the romantics I could not help but think of the 1960’s and the free love revolution. Over and over again we seem to rise up on these waves that ride high for a time till they run out of depth as they come crashing into the shore. As they come crashing into what has always been and truly is. A voyage we are all destained to take if we are worth our salt and a prayer that all find mercy as they reach the shore.
A fascinating listen, I like the dynamic approach to these Romantic poets, this ensures relevance and that civilised dialogue we so badly need at this present time.That sense of enquiry with judgement. All of us who wind Blake’s golden string need that dynamic connection, that creative and imaginative imperative. I would have liked more of this conversation.
Grateful this morning to hear this spirited conversation about the Romantics. Also so grateful to learn you are touring Canada, Martin. We have purchased tickets and are brushing up on our rendition of The Lumberjack Song with which to serenade you. :)
