Starhawk (EN)
“To Re-enchant the World”
How can we envision the world that we want? How did the world become disenchanted-reduced to dead material devoid of inherent value? To address the great ecological and social meltdowns of our time, we need a worldview that sees all of life as interconnected and interdependent, sharing a field of consciousness. Starhawk proposes frameworks, ethics and principles that can guide us in designing a world infused with spirit and founded on justice, where we approach nature with reverence, humility, and wonder.
Isabelle Stengers (FR)
“I will life to go on”
Isabelle Stengers, who translated and introduced Starhawk’s “Quel monde voulons-nous ?”, will emphasise how struck she was by the importance of the word “envision” that she uses. There is nothing contemplative, but a desire, for more than forty years, to let oneself be guided by the life that must go on, and to bring this life to places where conflicts and mistrust threaten or make us forget interdependencies and interconnections.

How is the world listening to all those misguided voices, and not massively cheering when Starhawk and Isabelle Stengers, two queens of the universe, speak?
Thank you so much for this.
