He is our most important writer on the cultural crisis posed by industrialization and mass consumerism, and the vital role of rural, sustainable farming in preserving the planet as well as our national character. Now, in celebration of Berry's extraordinary six-decade-long career, Library of America presents a two-volume selection of his nonfiction writings prepared in close consultation with the author. In this second volume, forty-four essays from ten works turn to issues of political and social debate--big government, science and religion, and the meaning of citizenship following the tragedy of 9/11. Also included is his Jefferson Lecture to the National Endowment for the Humanities, "It All Turns on Affection" (2012). Berry's essays remain timely, even urgent today, and will resonate with anyone interested in our relationship to the natural world and especially with a younger, politically engaged generation invested in the future welfare of the planet. 000889966 650_0 $$aAmerican essays. 000889966 655_7 $$aEssays.$$2lcgft 000889966 7001_ $$aShoemaker, Jack,$$d1946-$$eeditor. 000889966 7001_ $$aWilson, Edward O.$$tConsilience. 000889966 830_0 $$aLibrary of America ;$$v317. 000889966 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3552.E75$$iA6$$i2019b 000889966 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:889966$$pGLOBAL_SET 000889966 980__ $$aBIB 000889966 980__ $$aBOOK
