Gary Snyder
gary snyder delivers his opus. Review by Catherine A. Salmons.
http://www.bostonphoenix.com/alt1/archive/books/reviews/03-97/SNYDER.html

Extractions: This invocation to the muse of the Chinese scroll painter who unfurls his yin/yang-balanced cascade of boulders, temples, and streams with a few sweeping brush strokes sets the epic tone of Mountains and Rivers Without End , the long-awaited memoir in verse by Pulitzer-winning poet Gary Snyder. As far back as Snyder's 1950s Berkeley grad school days, when he hobnobbed with his fellow Beat pioneers of San Francisco's flowering North Beach scene (Allen Ginsberg, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Robert Duncan, Jack Spicer) and published his first book of poems, Myths and Texts , rumors already swirled that he was writing this book THE book a single work of magnificent scope that would flow through the years and channels of his life like an all-encompassing scroll. Four decades later, this project's completion couldn't help being heralded as a Literary Event even if Mountains and Rivers weren't the graceful opus that it is.

Extractions: by Ann Charters, from The Portable Beat Reader Gary Snyder was born on May 8, 1930 in San Francisco, California, and was raised in Washing ton state and Oregon. At Reed College he was part of a bohemian group that included Philip Whalen and Lew Welch, who joined him in San Francisco in the early 1950s. Snyder entered the Asian language program of the University of California in Berkeley, where he lived in a small cottage near the Young Buddhist Association and saved his money to study Buddhism in Japan. His friend Will Petersen recalls that Snyder wore blue jeans to read his poetry at the Six Gallery, whereas Ginsberg wore a charcoal gray suit, white shirt, and tie. Snyder was, according to his friend, "somehow certain of immortality, back then. In an impoverished Taoist unpublished poet sort of way. `Save the invitation [to the Six Gallery reading],' Gary confided, `Some day it will be worth something.'" Snyder's first book of poems, Riprap, was published by Origin Press in 1959 and reflect his experience in Yosemite in 1955 as a trail crew laborer laying "riprap," a kind of rock pavement set into an eroding trail. "Mid-August at Sourdough Mountain Lookout" and "Milton by Firelight" were inspired by his earlier summer jobs as a lookout ranger in the mountains of Washington. "Night Highway Niney-nine" described various trips hitchhiking from Seattle to San Francisco early in 1956, accormpanied at times by Allen Ginsberg. "Note on the Religious Tendencies" appeared in

http://www.bopsecrets.org/CF/garysnyder.htm

Extractions: B U R E A U O F P U B L I C S E C R E T S Buddhist Anarchism actual achievement of Buddhism has been the development of practical systems of meditation toward the end of liberating a few dedicated individuals from psychological hangups and cultural conditionings. Institutional Buddhism has been conspicuously ready to accept or ignore the inequalities and tyrannies of whatever political system it found itself under. This can be death to Buddhism, because it is death to any meaningful function of compassion. Wisdom without compassion feels no pain. No one today can afford to be innocent, or indulge himself in ignorance of the nature of contemporary governments, politics a There is nothing in human nature or the requirements of human social organization which intrinsically requires that a culture be contradictory, repressive and productive of violent and frustrated personalities. Recent findings in anthropology and psychology make this more and more evident. One can prove it for himself by taking a good look at his own nature through meditation. Once a person has this much faith and insight, he must be led to a deep concern with the need for radical social change through a variety of hopefully non-violent means. The mercy of the West has been social revolution; the mercy of the East has been individual insight into the basic self/void. We need both. They are both contained in the traditional three aspects of the Dharma path: wisdom (
Reading Gary Snyder's Mountains And Rivers: A Graduate Research Workshop
Resources from a graduate workshop held at Stanford University.
http://shc.stanford.edu/shc/1997-1998/97-98workshops/Gary.Snyder.html

Extractions: Stanford Humanities Center Mellon Foundation Graduate Research Workshop: Reading Gary Snyder's "Mountains and Rivers Without End" (a.k.a. The "Mountains and Rivers" Workshop) As poet, essayist, translator, Zen student, environmentalist and teacher, Gary Snyder has made an indelible mark on late-twentieth century American thought. At present, Snyder is a resident of San Juan Ridge, Professor of English, and guiding force behind the Program in Nature and Culture at the University of California-Davis. Snyder received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1975. Earlier this year he was awarded both the Bollingen Poetry Prize and the John Hay Award for Nature writing. In April 1996 Snyder completed Mountains and Rivers Without En d, a long poem sequence he resolved to write on April 8, 1956. In our year-long workshop we will study and explicate this poem by identifying and attending to the various voices and ideas that reverberate thought this complex text. Our workshop will begin on October 9, 1997 with Snyder giving a full-scale public reading of Mountains and Rivers. At this performance we will make audio and video recordings for archival and research purposes. Then, in the months to come, research participants will attend weekly seminars on the poem, given by scholars from various departments in the arts, humanities and sciences both from Stanford and from other universities. The seminar will end with another reading from the book at the Stanford Bookstore on Friday May 15, 1998, followed by a day-long symposium on the poem on May 16, 1998.

Extractions: About Gary Snyder Glyn Maxwell S nyder was born in San Francisco, and brought up in Oregon and Washington State. He received his BA in anthropology at Reed College, Portland, in 1951. His subsequent career has been a remarkable combination of the academic and the contemplative, spiritual study and physical labour. Between working as a logger, a trail-crew member, and a seaman on a Pacific tanker, he studied Oriental languages at Berkeley (1953-6), was associated with Beat writers such as Ginsberg and Kerouac, lived in Japan (1956-64), later studied Buddhism there, and won numerous literary prizes, including a Guggenheim fellowship (1968) and the Pulitzer Prize (1975). He now teaches literature and 'wilderness thought' at the University of California at Davis. The shapes and strengths of Gary Snyder's craft were established at the outset of his career. His first book, Riprap Snyder's poetry blends America's native past with the grandeur and detail of nature, and the mental disciplines of Zen Buddhism: his long apprenticeship in the latter has harvested a tough simplicity and freshness of expression (at its best in Cold Mountain Poems
