En Paz

Posted on March 2, 2015 by raoulpat

Until a friend asked me to copy this poem, I had never heard of the Mexican modernist poet Amado Nervo. His poem expresses Nervo’s feelings about his life and how fairly it has treated him. Advertisements

In his only surviving work De Rerum Natura (On the Nature of Things), the philosopher and poet Lucretius expounds on his theory that all matter is composed of tiny particles, making him the world’s second atomic physicist (Democritus, in fact, was the first.) My piece is on display as part of Kalligraphia XV at the San Francisco Public Library through 27 August 2018. Translation by Dean Robino: Thus the first things - atoms - are solid in simple singleness, cohered from very small parts that were skillfully crowded together. Not out of the union of their coming together but their greater power in eternal singleness, with things finally neither being torn away or made smaller nature now gives way, reserving the seeds of matter. . #calligraphybyraoul #dererumnatura #lucretiuspoetry #atomictheory #blacklettercalligraphy #archeshotpress #goldleaf #sumiink #gouache #friendsofcalligraphy #kalligraphiaxv #texturacalligraphy #sfpubliclibrary
