    Geschenken van het krentenboompje

    Wat de natuur ons leert over geven en nemen

    Geschenken van het krentenboompje is het nieuwste boek van botanicus Robin Wall Kimmerer. In dit boek gaat de auteur dieper in op de thema’s van haar bestseller Een vlecht van heilig gras (Braiding Sweetgrass) en verkent ze de geschenkeconomie, die is gebaseerd op wederkerigheid en overvloed. Door middel van rijke beschrijvingen van de natuur, waaronder de oogst van de bessen van het krentenboompje, laat Kimmerer zien hoe we wederzijdse relaties met de natuur en elkaar kunnen opbouwen. Met haar reflecties prikkelt ze lezers om anders naar consumptie te kijken en inspireert ze tot een bewuster en respectvoller gebruik van hulpbronnen. ‘Een overtuigende call to action.’ Publishers Weekly ‘Een tegengif voor de gebroken relaties en misplaatste doelen van deze tijd.’ Elizabeth Gilbert ‘Een prachtige reflectie op overvloed, wederkerigheid en gemeenschap.’ The Guardian 'Als geen ander kan zij beschrijven hoe ons leven gevoed wordt uit het lichaam van Moeder Aarde.'

    The Serviceberry

    From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Braiding Sweetgrass, an inspiring vision of how to reorient our lives around gratitude, reciprocity and communityAs Indigenous scientist and author of Braiding Sweetgrass Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy. How, she asks, can we learn from Indigenous wisdom and the plant world to reimagine what we value most?Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberry's relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth-its abundance of sweet, juicy berries-to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival.The Serviceberry is an antidote to the broken relationships and misguided goals of our times, and a reminder that "hoarding won't save us, all flourishing is mutual."

    Armagan Yemisi

    Doganin sofrasina davetlisiniz, zira bolluk, paylasildikca cogalan tek hazinedir.Kutsal Otu Örmek kitabiyla milyonlara ulasan Robin Wall Kimmerer, bu kez Armagan Yemisiyle bizi modern dünyanin kitlik masalindan uyanmaya cagiriyor. Piyasa ekonomisinin rekabetci carklarina karsi, doganin kadim ve cömert armagan ekonomisini ortaya koyan Kimmerer, bir agacin meyvesinden, bir kusun civiltisindan ve topluluk olmanin gücünden devrimci bir manifesto cikariyor.Armagan ekonomisi fikrini ictenlikle önemsiyorum. Her seyi metaya indirgemeye meyilli o ögütücü düzenden; cogumuzu aslinda en cok ihtiyac duydugumuz seylerden, yani aidiyet, iliski, amac ve güzellik duygusundan yoksun birakan o sistemden biraz geri cekilebilsek keske. Cünkü bunlarin hicbiri metalastirilamaz. Zenginligin paylasacak kadarina sahip olmak anlamina geldigi, kendi ihtiyaclarini karsilamanin baskalarinin bu imkanini yok ederek zehirlenmedigi bir sistemin parcasi olmak istiyorum. Degisimin para biriminin minnettarlik ve paylasildikca tükenen degil, cogalan bir kaynak olan nezaket oldugu bir toplumda yasamak istiyorum.

    Los Frutos del Guillomo

    De la autora del gran bestseller del New York Times, Una trenza de hierba sagrada, una visión audaz e inspiradora sobre cómo orientar nuestras vidas en torno a la gratitud, la reciprocidad y la comunidad, basándose en las lecciones del mundo natural. Mientras Robin Wall Kimmerer cosecha guillomos junto a los pájaros, reflexiona sobre la ética de la reciprocidad que yace en el corazón de la economía del regalo. ¿Cómo podemos aprender de la sabiduría indígena y del mundo vegetal para reimaginar lo que más valoramos? Nuestra economía se basa en la escasez, la competencia y el acaparamiento de recursos, y hemos entregado nuestros valores a un sistema que daña activamente lo que amamos. Mientras tanto, la relación del guillomo con el mundo natural es una encarnación de la reciprocidad, la interconexión y la gratitud. El árbol distribuye su riqueza —su abundancia de moras dulces y jugosas— para satisfacer las necesidades de su comunidad natural. Y esta distribución garantiza su propia supervivencia. Como explica Kimmerer, 'El guillomo nos muestra otro modelo, basado en la reciprocidad, en el que la riqueza procede de la calidad de tus relaciones, no de la ilusión de la autosuficiencia'. Como escribe Elizabeth Gilbert, Robin Wall Kimmerer es 'una gran maestra, y sus palabras son un himno de amor al mundo'. Los dones del guillomo es un antídoto contra las relaciones rotas y los objetivos equivocados de nuestro tiempo, y un recordatorio de que 'acaparar no nos salvará, todo florecimiento es mutuo'. ----- From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Braiding Sweetgrass, a bold and inspiring vision for how to orient our lives around gratitude, reciprocity, and community, based on the lessons of the natural world.

    Das Sammeln von Moos

    Am Rand unserer alltäglichen Wahrnehmung, kaum sichtbar für das Auge, liegt eine andere Welt: ein Regenwald en miniature, ein Mikrobiom, bestehend aus Moosen, den primitivsten aller Pflanzen. Sie haben weder Blüten, Früchte noch Samen und bringen es dennoch auf 22 000 Arten. Sie haben keine Wurzeln, und doch sind sie seit ihrer Entstehung vor mehreren hundert Millionen Jahren tief verbunden mit dem Leben unzähliger anderer Organismen. Anschaulich und kunstvoll bietet Robin Wall Kimmerer in ihren persönlichen, mit indigenen Wissensformen und wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis angereicherten Reflexionen Einblick in die Vielfalt dieser genügsamen, allen Widrigkeiten trotzenden Organismen. Und zeigt damit, dass der bloßen Existenz der Moose nicht nur aufgrund ihrer Schönheit unsere Aufmerksamkeit gelten sollte. Dem ersten Blick verborgen, offenbaren sie uns Blatt für Blatt eine Botschaft, die unbedingt gehört werden muss: wie es möglich ist, sich mit der Welt aufs Innigste vertraut zu machen und noch unter schwierigsten Bedingungen in Verbundenheit zu überleben.

    Braiding Sweetgrass for Young Adults

    I could hand you a braid of sweetgrass as thick and shining as the braid that hung down my grandmother's back. But it is not mine to give, nor yours to take. Wiingaashk belongs to herself. I offer, in her place, a braid of stories meant to heal our relationship with the world. As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer is trained to use the tools of science to ask questions of nature. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces plants and animals as our oldest teachers. Drawing from her experiences as an Indigenous scientist, Kimmerer demonstrated how when we listen to the languages of other beings--from strawberries and witch hazel to water lilies and lichen--we are capable of understanding the generosity of the earth and learn to give our own gifts in return in her best-selling book Braiding Sweetgrass. Adapted for young adults by Monique Gray Smith, this new edition reinforces how wider ecological understanding stems from listening to the earth's oldest teachers: the plants around us. With informative sidebars, reflection questions, and art from illustrator Nicole Neidhardt, Braiding Sweetgrass for Young Adults highlights how acknowledging and celebrating our reciprocal relationship with the earth results in a wider, more complete understanding of our place and purpose.
