Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. After 16 years of writing Poetry (exactly half of my life), this work forced itself out of the fray, as the positive embrasure of existence (as opposed to other works which deride life). The works included in this collection were produced between 2009-2014, with some standout works selected from 2001-2004. My major influences are mostly Romantic and 20th Century Continental European authors. Having lived in the United States for my entire life has brought a unique setting with which to operate my Poetic license considering that my major influences are mostly non-American writers. Finding my own voice amongst such powerful authors was a harrowing and difficult task, as they all vied for supremacy throughout my growth as individual and Poet. After countless drafts, handwritten reflections, and aphorism/poems, my own voice awoke amidst the clamor of various ages and styles. Amor Fati is a Latin phrase which translates as Love of Fate. The hardest thing to do in life is to accept one's Fate on its terms. Nietzsche used this phrase in tandem with his incomplete theory of the Eternal Recurrence, which, in short, is the theory that all things that occur not only happen once, but happen an infinite amount of times. In order to accept this ideology one has to be strong enough to acknowledge that every joy, sorrow, horror, hardship and conquest are essentially going to repeat ad infinitum.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Often during the course of life one is forced to make difficult decisions. It is in these tenuous times that a person relies upon faith. There is always a gap between this moment and the next, and even a non-spiritual person utilizes a modicum of faith. A person of science has faith in the underlying principles governing the universe. That the orbit of the earth doesn't careen on a path, hurtling towards the sun, is a sign of faith in gravity amongst the celestial bodies. This collection of poetry signifies a leap of faith in many ways. First, as someone who hasn't had much experience in publishing, it's an attempt to gain exposure. Second, the works contained in this collection usually touch upon philosophical musings, as these often require a tangible resolution, and since a verdict is not always forthcoming, a simulated leap of faith often accompanies the philosophical thoughts. Third, as a poet-philosopher/creator and one given to inspirational spiritual climaxes, a leap of faith is required to bridge the gap between all decisions in this life.
