This passion, which Tymieniecka calls an  esoteric passion', finds its projection and crystallization in space: it is \u003cem\u003ethe esoteric passion for space\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e This subliminal passion, investigated through literature, allows the philosopher to reach beneath the fallacious separations of nature, humanness and the cultural world, restoring the wholeness of experience that has become lost in the artificial one-sidedness of contemporary approaches, confined to language as they are. \u003cbr\u003e The elemental passion for place is investigated here in the literary fruits of creative imagination. Unravelled from the very depths of the primogenital, onto-poietic unfolding of life, the passion for place is revealed as projecting into the flux of life: it is a  station' of life-significance. \u003cbr\u003e This collection presents papers from two conferences of the International Society of Phenomenology and Literature held in Cambridge, MA in 1993\/4.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0792341465\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780792341468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48438011855103,"sku":"9780792341468","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7fff3566-7d7c-4817-95fd-3e83e3a57920.jpg?v=1777168198","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/passion-for-place-book-ii-anna-teresa-tymieniecka-9780792341468","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
