Creative Writing, like Tao, can be the "way with a heart." Viewed as a psychotechnology and not as a skill, writing can serve as a channel to self-transcendence. the process begins when the writer, in stillness, observes the physical world. As s/he connects with that world, the distractions of self and ego drop away. the writer becomes one with all-there-is, achieving what Maslow has termed a "peak-experience." the words used to capture that experience become the experience itself. the poem, therefore, is not about something but is the thing itself. Nothing stands between the reader and the experience. If there is to be a poem, primary creativeness (or raw writing) must precede secondary creativeness (or revision). If primary creativeness is to be nurtured, writing must be seen as process rather than product. Writing, as process, is a journey of self-discovery. the products that result are markers on that journey. As such, writing products are the threshold of literature, the starting place. to get going on that journey, one can gain confidence in writing through a series of exercises based on free association and triggering techniques. These techniques break down barriers between spoken and written expression. Through writing one discovers himself or herself and what the personal journey is. the writer-teacher can accompany students along the way, lending encouragement, but the journey must be alone. It is a journey that begins in silence and, finally, ends in silence--at the point where words have led to inner knowing and recognition of the true self.

The Tao of Legal Writing is designed for upper-level law students, paralegals, and practitioners. The book's goal is to help teach "the way" of legal writing in the Taoist style: legal writing becomes easier when you work with--rather than resist--what already exists in terms of expectations, structures, and resources. It is an advanced legal writing book, but one that focuses as much on concepts as on mechanics. Existing advanced legal writing books provide more detail than basic legal writing texts and could not be described as a "quick read" for someone wanting a refresher after several years of practice or for someone anticipating a summer clerkship during law school. The Tao of Legal Writing is that quick read; it includes concrete examples and descriptions, but the goal is to get the reader to think differently about writing. Rather than provide greater detail to drill in the same skills that are covered in first-year legal writing programs, the book attempts to give a reader who already has a basic understanding a new framework for viewing legal writing.

Can poetry be taught? How can we teach and learn a poetic way of being in the world with respect to all Creation? Is poetry our natural wisdom? Lao Tzu (571-531 BC), an ancient Chinese sage, teacher, historiographer, and poet says that poetic wisdom is a subtle essence of the universe and a virtuous treasure of cultural simplicity. This mini-book/zine invites you, the reader, to learn about Tao from high school students and their unique poetic visions and voices. In this context, poetry inspires all of us to perceive, understand, and experience the subtle nature of the Universe. We begin to re-imagine education as a cultural story, in which learning and teaching processes are the subtle pathways of unrestricted cognition without any dogmas of modern discourses. ------------------------------ Proceeds from this zine benefit animal welfare nonprofit organizations worldwide Full Colour.

The ancient Chinese regarded the written word as a transformative force able to move heaven and earth and unite the reader with the source of all things, the Tao. The power of writing, especially poetry, is celebrated here in short texts that present both practical instruction and spiritual insight: • Lu Ji's essay in verse, "The Art of Writing," reveals the inner process every writer must go through in preparing for the creative act. • Sikong Tu's "Twenty-four Styles of Poetry" teaches that poets must perfect themselves internally in order to achieve perfection in what they write. • "Poets' Jade Splinters" contains aphoristic prescriptions and humorous anecdotes about poetry, poets, and the rules of composition. Assorted commentaries and critical evaluations focus on Chinese lyrical poetry.

Can poetry be taught? Is poetry a natural expansion of consciousness from the heart to the whole Universe? Is poetry a way of cultural embrace and organic intuitive connection with cosmos, nature, and human and non-human communities? Poetry leads students to feel dignity of their self, nature, culture. Poetry also opens Mind as Nature, the miracle of Infinity, here and now. -- This is a book of students' inspirational poetry for social change. We need to learn with heart, and help all animals and earth communities to live with compassion, peace, and love. The book helps us to re-imagine learning, teaching, and knowing as some of the natural processes of becoming in realization of the inner creativity, intrinsic wisdom, and culture of the world's heritage within the self, others, and earth communities.

During its long history the problem of reducing language to writing, and conversely that of interpreting written signs as language, has found a variety of solutions which still exist in the form of different writing systems. Written by a leading expert, this new textbook provides an accessible introduction to the major writing systems of the world, from cuneiform to English spelling. Florian Coulmas presents detailed descriptions of the world's writing systems and explains their structural complexities as well as the intricate relationship between written and spoken language. The book also provides a clear and engaging account of the history of writing and its consequences for human thought and literate society. This illustrated textbook includes questions for discussion at the end of each chapter, and an up-to-date explanation of theoretical issues. Clearly organised and engagingly written, it is the ideal textbook for use on courses on writing systems.
