Taliesin: Recovering the poetic self - Paperback

by Horst Kornberger (Author)

This book is based on the Celtic Tale of Taliesin, which describes the archetypal, initiatory process of becoming a poet. The word poet meant something different at the time of Taliesin. It pointed toward the teacher, healer, adviser, mediator, visionary, word-smith, story-maker and magician of the Celtic world, i.e. the creative human being capable of constructive change and decisive action. So this book is written not only for writers, but for everyone who wishes to develop a more imaginative and poetic relationship to the world.
