Description

A Tryst with Nature talks about the clear gap between nature as known in the laboratory and nature as known in the diversity of natural landscapes. Faced with this contradiction between two equally important and necessary spaces, the key questions facing us now are: What is the future of this contradiction? What does harmony mean? Of what significance is the nation-State in relation to these questions? The author discusses two separate aspects of modern life, one that embraces the notion of development and conservation defined by a colonial legacy of instrumental labour in a capitalist economy, and another that embraces the economy of nature that is nourished by the reflexive labor of the forest-dwelling tribes, expressed by the natural landscape water present in all forms of life, for instance, in the universe of the forest. The book focuses on people whose lives were not shaped by the vocabulary of modern social life.
