This monograph takes an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural
approach to 20th and 21st -century Canadian Daoist poetry, fiction
and criticism in comparative, innovative and engaging ways. Of
particular interest are the authors' refreshing insights into such
holistic and topical issues as the globalization of concepts of the
Dao, the Yin/Yang, the Heaven-Earth-Humanity triad, the Four
Greats, Five Phases, Non-action and so on, as expressed in Canadian
literature and criticism - which produces Canadian-constructed
Daoist poetics, ethics and aesthetics. Readers will come to
understand and appreciate the social and ecological significance
of, formal innovations, moral sensitivity, aesthetic principles and
ideological complexity in Canadian-Daoist works.
These parables are written from the words of Lao Tse and relate how
He learnt from Great Huang Di. The steps of the spiritual Path that
permit to cognize Tao and Te are described here in parable style.
