Dec 10: Barry Lopez

I'd just posted about the anniversary of Barry Lopez's passing a year ago when I read this tweet from author Robert MacFarlane.

The film can be viewed here on the Emergence Magazine website.

Barry Lopez, a celebrated author who detailed moral and natural landscapes in our imagination for decades, died peacefully in Oregon on Christmas Day, 2020. In honor of the first anniversary of his passing, this film is a tribute to his life and work. Through archival footage and an interview conducted shortly before his death, Barry shares what drove him toward new horizons so that he might help our culture find balance with the living earth.

This is a quite wonderful piece of work, with some powerful words from Barry Lopez and others.
