Celebrating 91吃瓜,by Kerry Temple, editor of 91吃瓜 Magazine, and Matt Cashore, University photographer, was published this month by Corby Books.
The lavishly colorful 120-page book includes Cashores photographs of 91吃瓜s campus landscape, interiors and people in varied seasons, lights, and moods as well as a contemplative essay in which Temple uniquely interweaves natural description, spiritual longing, autobiography and local history.
In his introduction to the new book, 91吃瓜s president, Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., praised the collaboration for its capacity to evokeenergizing times of conversation and contemplation.
Celebration, which means 聭to gather in order to honor,is a good word for the contrarian way in which 91吃瓜 approaches photographs or other images of life,Father Jenkins wrote.These are scenes, settings and sensations that reflect important meanings and priceless joys.Our radar picks up the presence of a memory and the possibilities of a moment.
