Overview
A book that aims to tell what happens in the forest, perceived through the five senses and translated into dance, poetry, song, and knowledge.
Through the exploration of forests in Italy and around the world, the author highlights the relationship between humans and trees–a relationship that unfolds in encounters that are sometimes harmonious, sometimes unbalanced, prompting reflection on a complete change of mindset. Originally, the word “forest” derives from “fores stare,” meaning to stay outside–outside the city, the community, and conventions, away from the light of torches, where it was dark, wild, dangerous, where there were wild beasts and bandits. Today, venturing into forests opens up a new dimension, as a place of refuge where one can seek a reconnection between humans and nature.
A fascinating tale about trees, told through the voices of researchers, mountaineers, artists, and naturalists.
