Description
In this audiovisual recording from Wednesday, March 17, 1999, as part of the 30th Annual UND Writers Conference: “Expressing the Sacred," Joseph Bruchac, Mark Doty, Robert Clark, and Terry Tempest Williams participate in a panel called “Faith and the Sacred.” The panelists discuss their notions of faith, the role of history and science on the common perception of faith, writing as an act of faith, the relationship between faith and religion, environmentalism and the role of religion on environmental damage, the documentation and exploitation of indigenous sacred traditions for the purposes of knowledge, and the responsibility of writers to foster positive growth. Bruchac also plays part of an Abenaki medicine song.
Moderated by Dr. Rebecca Moore.
