• W329349801 abstract "Michael E. Stone. Selected Poems. Metulla, ISRAEL: Cyclamens and Swords Publishing. 2010. [Available from the publishers, Cyclamens and Swords Publishing, P.O. Box 21, Metulla, ISRAEL. http://www. cyclamensandswords.com] Michael Stone is a leading scholar of Jewish literature and thought of the Second Temple period, notably in the area of the Dead Sea Scrolls, early Jewish and Christian literature, the Old Testament, pseudoepigrapha, and Armenian Studies. He is also a published poet. Michael Stone grew up in Sydney, the son of Professor Julius Stone, an expert in jurisprudence and international law and a figure of national standing in Australia and the Jewish world in the 20th century. Michael studied at Melbourne University, moved to Israel in 1960, and retired a few years ago after 40 years on the faculty of the Hebrew University. Having now retired, Professor Michael Stone has not ceased creative and scholarly work. He has been publishing poetry for over a decade. His interest in and passion for his areas of study (Ancient Judaism and Armenian Studies) suffuse his poems. In this book he gathers published and unpublished poems into a collection that I personally found extremely lyrical and spiritual. This collection is divided into six sections. Section One deals with Jerusalem where he has lived for over fifty years. Section Two refers to scribes, the Ancients, and the difficulty at times of writing creatively. Section Three describes landscapes in the Judean Hills, or outside the window wherever you may be: Inside a room or in the middle of a city, a town or a train station. For Stone, the window, looking out onto the hills, becomes a metaphor of the human being seeing the world through his/her individual window, a window provided with depths of meaning by mind and spirit. Section Four moves on to Armenia, its beauty and history: teasing out meaning as seen through Stone's personal experience. Section Five focuses on Australia, displaying a sensitivity to Australia's impact on someone who grew up here and has visited it over and over again ever since settling in Jerusalem. Section Six, which delves into his personal reaction to the pain and suffering that is a common feature in human life, and into faith and disbelief, will speak to many readers. Thus the poetry naturally reflects the Jewish/Israeli experience, Stone's sensitivity to Armenia and the Armenian people, and the memory and the imprint of his Australian childhood and adult reencounters. In the first section, the poem Sinai Scenes reflects the poet's perception of the desert, with its combination of beauty and history. One stanza stood out as I read and re-read this poem: They are all still there-- Romans, Greeks, Nabateans, Armenians, Jews, Arabs, Bedouin, Sabeans, Egyptians--Layered human traffic of the wasteland. Do these represent the archaeological layers to the scholar, the history of that ancient land that goes back to the beginning of time, or the might and stark beauty of what has been called God's Wilderness? …" @default.
