David Arthur Walters

The Sly Way Gurdjieff & Ouspensky (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Smart, savvy, brilliant! David Arthur Walters does it again, bringing his thought-contortionist skills to bear on the Gurdjieff-Ouspensky dynamics of The Fourth Way and other babble of philosophical import. Incisive, even hilarious, Walters pulls the rug out from under the well ordered arguments of early 20th century epistemic certainty, shining a spotlight on its excesses and toppling the hierarchy of dualist thought as anathema, according to Gurdjieff, to a fully liberated (awake) mind-self. We can almost imagine Gurdjieff on a hilltop with megaphone in hand, calling, "Sleep no more! The Fourth Way is here!" nudging our somnambulant selves into action, even if we have no idea what those actions could possibly be. Bravo to David Arthur Walters for this postmodernist homage to the sacred and the ridiculous, which is so vital for our times! Bring it on, David! (Melina Costello, author of Seeking the End of Ecstasy, and Tutti-frutti town, Blinky Blueberry finds a friend, featured in the author's Timely Intercourse on Groundhog Days)

Autorenporträt

David Arthur Walters is an independent journalist who lives in the South Beach area of Miami Beach, Florida. David Arthur Walters is a poor man's writer-wunderkind who takes on the philosophical big guns of our age with sleight-of-hand logic and epistemological flourishes worthy of Foucault. But don't let that fool you. In a pinch he can write a play based on La Dame aux camellias, no doubt inspired by Dumas, and render sidewalk chalk-art tres chic after Picasso. Baudelaire could easily have been his drinking buddy if we were to imagine time in reverse, which Mr. Walters compels us to consider through the Ouspenskian lens of Eternal Recurrence and other stuff worthy of a Dali painting a la melting clock faces. Herein lies the genius of David Arthur Walters, jack of all trades and master jester of Nan, that far-off land in which lived the holy fool of William Blake's prodigious imagination. Writer, dancer, word-artist, satirist, and clown, David Arthur Walters brings it all to the page, compelling us to wave our hand-fans in astonishment at the nerve of the man, the impropriety, the utter genius of his whackadoodle mind. May his works live on in the annals of Time! (Melina Costello, Author of Seeking the God of Ecstasy: A Spiritual Journey of Sexual Awakening, Tutti-Frutti Town: Blinky Blueberry Finds A Friend)
