Plant Powers, Poisons, and Herb Craft
PLANT POWERS, POISONS, AND HERB CRAFT BY DALE PENDELL Foreword by Gary Snyde, $21.95 US In 'Pharmako/Poeia, Dale Pendell offers a mesmerizing guide to psychoactive Alternative plants, from their pharmacological roots to the literary offshoots. "This is a Health/ book," writes Gary Snyder, "about danger: dangerous knowledge, even more Literature dangerous ignorance." Against the greater danger, ignorance, Pendell strikes a formidable blow, as he proves himself a wise and witty guide to our plant teach- ers, their powers and their poisons. "Dale Pendell reactivates the ancient connection between the bardic poet and the shaman. His Pharmako/Poeia is a litany to the secret plant allies that have always accompanied us along the alchemical trajectory that leads to a new and yet authentically archaic future." — Terence McKenna, author of True Hallucinations "Much of our life-force calls upon the plant world for support, in medicines and in foods, as both allies and teachers. Pendell provides a beautifully crafted bridge between these two worlds. The magic he shares is that the voices are spoken and heard both ways; we communicate with plants and they with us. This book is a moving and poetic presentation of this dialogue." — Dr. Alexander T. Shulgin, University of California at Berkeley, Department of Public Health "Pharmako/Poeia is an epic poem on plant humours, an abstruse alchemic treatise, an experiential narrative jigsaw puzzle, a hip and learned wild-nature reference text, a comic paean to cosmic consciousness, an ecological handbook, a dried-herb pastiche, a countercultural encyclopedia of ancient fact and lore that cuts through the present 'conservative' war-on-drugs psychobabble." - Allen Ginsberg, poet Cover design "Dale PendelFs remarkable book will make it impossible to and color work ever again underestimate the most unprepossessing plant.

Willa Cather's and Georgia O'keeffe's Visionary Landscapes of The
論文 Messages from the Far-away: Willa Cather’s and Georgia O’Keeffe’s Visionary Landscapes of the American Southwest Martha Robertson 要旨アメリカ合衆国のアイデンタテイ形成には大自然がずっと深く関ってきた。20世紀はじめに，最後のフロンテイアがなくなろうとしているころ，作家のWilla Catherと画家のGeorgia O’Keefeは砂漠地帯の南西地区を訪れた。人気が少なく、広々としたこの土地に彼女たちが新たな刺激を受けた。本稿ではCatherとO’Keefeがどのようにこの砂漠地帯をみて、表現したかを論じる。そしてそれぞれの作品をとおして、アメリカと大自然との関係がどのように変化してきたかを探る。 Keywords: Georgia O’Keefe, Willa Cather, desert, American identity, nature, and frontier Abstract The American wilderness played a central role in shaping the American identity. In the early years of the 20th century, when the last frontiers were being settled, the writer Willa Cather and the painter Georgia O’Keeffe traveled to the Southwestern desert precincts and found renewed artistic inspiration in the vast expanse of this sparsely inhabited landscape. This paper will discuss the artists’ contrasting visions of the desert and show how their work reflects America’s evolving relationship with wild nature. ― 79 ― 愛知大学言語と文化 No. 16 Messages from the Far-away: Willa Cather’s and Georgia O’Keeffe’s Visionary Landscapes of the American Southwest We come and go, but the land is always here. And the people who love it and understand it are the people who own it –for a little while– Willa Cather America’s faith in the wilderness as a source of purity and spiritual renewal is reflected in the work of the writer Willa Cather and the painter Georgia O’Keeffe, who spent their childhoods in farming communities on the Midwestern plains and, later in life, found a lasting inspiration for their art in the Southwestern desert precincts. For these two artists, the encounter with the Southwestern desert was a transformative experience, coming at a time when each was in need of both personal and artistic rejuvenation.

The Flowers and Bones of Georgia O'keeffe
THE FLOWERS AND BONES OF GEORGIA O’KEEFFE: A RESEARCH-BASED DISSERTATION CULMINATING IN A FULL-LENGTH PLAY: DAYS WITH JUAN A dissertation submitted to the Caspersen School of Graduate Studies Drew University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree, Doctor of Letters Renata Renee Kessler Drew University Madison, New Jersey May 2021 Copyright © 2021 Renata Renee Kessler All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Flowers and Bones of Georgia O’Keeffe: A Research-Based Dissertation Culminating in a Full-Length Play: Days with Juan Doctor of Letters Dissertation by Renata Renee Kessler The Caspersen School of Graduate Studies Drew University May 2021 Was Georgia O’Keeffe a nature mystic? The Flowers and Bones of Georgia O’Keeffe examines mystical philosophies prevalent during O’Keeffe’s development as an artist and their influence on her. The influence of mysticism is sought through the examination of selected flower and bone paintings by the modernist artist. I have viewed selected works through an ethnobotanical and anthropological lens, seeking depth and meaning in the artist’s work beyond the current interpretations which focus on gender, sexuality, and feminism. Through the prism of lotus, jimson flower, poppy, and sand dollar cactus, I have explored their importance to O’Keeffe, as well as the context of these plants in Eastern, Western, and Native American cultures in which she was interested. Ethnobotanical sources and intercultural seminars at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico, were included in my research. In addition, a selection of tree portraits, representations of mystical writers the artist admired, are included. These portraits include The Lawrence Tree (D.

Georgia O'keeffe
Georgia O’Keeffe 1887 - 1986 The Beauty of Nature Sun Prairie, Wisconsin 1887 The farm where Georgia grew up was a great place to learn about nature. Georgia wanted to touch and feel everything. She remembered that when she was very little, she put dirt in her mouth to see what it tasted like! Art Instruction “Dead Rabbit with a Copper Pot” by Georgia O’Keeffe, 1908 Georgia’s mother thought art was very important and made sure her children had art lessons as they grew up. Georgia did so well with her lessons that her parents encouraged her to go to art college after she graduated high school. Georgia studied at different art schools and colleges all over the country. At one school, in New York City, she won a prize for the painting above. New York “Georgia O’Keeffe: A Portrait” by Alfred Stieglitz, 1918 Georgia liked New York City. It was busier and more exciting than the peaceful farm areas where she’d grown up. Georgia often visited a small gallery in New York City that showed the work of new artists. It was owned by a well-known photographer named Alfred Stieglitz. Alfred Stieglitz Cezanne Matisse Alfred loved modern art and tried to get people interested in modern European artists like Paul Cezanne and Henri Matisse… Marin Hartley …and American artists like John Marin and Marsden Hartley. Georgia didn’t know it at the time but, in a few years, Alfred would help get people interested in her paintings, too. Texas After finishing school, Georgia decided to teach art for a while and traveled to Texas to take a job there.

Georgia O'keeffe
Georgia O’Keefe (1887 -1982) 20th Century, American Painter Georgia O’Keeffe (Ge-or-jah Oh Kee-fh) Painter, American Modernism style (see vocab) Modern Period of Art BORN: November 15, 1887, Wisconsin DIED: March 6, 1986, Santa Fe, New Mexico ACTIVE: 1916 - ca.1982 Georgia O’Keeffe was raised on a small farm in Wisconsin, where she liked to explore her world in any way she could…she even remembered eating dirt as a child, because she was curious how it tasted! Named for her absent Hungarian Count Grandfather (George Victor Totto,) Georgia spent her childhood learning everything she could, including the elements of art from her mother. Georgia wanted to be an artist from the time she was 10 years old, an dher mother supported her (as well as her sisters Ida and Anita) by finding watercolor lessons, and later encouraging them to go to art school. After college, Georgia taught art, but was faced with the difficulty that there were no real female painters- most female artists painted for family art and recreation or taught art, but did not make their living with it. She decided to try anyway, and her first big break came when a friend showed some charcoal abstract art sketches to gallery owner Alfred Stieglitz and he promptly put them on display (O’Keeffe scolded him for not asking her permission first!) Stieglitz helped O’Keeffe display and sell her art. He encouraged her to switch from watercolors (considered fit only for amateurs) to oils (the media of “real artists”) and advertised her works.
