Rhythms of Existence: From Cosmos to Human Experience

This book is a multidisciplinary exploration of the concept of rhythm in diverse fields that are closely connected with our life and felt experience, namely, spirituality, language and literature, ecology, socio-cultural contexts, music, visual arts, and well-being. Bringing together a collection of 24 essays by both eminent and young scholars which cover these diverse fields, its uniqueness lies in the way that each essay provides insight into the concept of rhythm and also links itself to other related disciplines. A book bridges the divide between humanities, social, and behavioral sciences, and it is a must read book for anyone who is interested either in the concepts of rhythm, cycle, harmony, and their ubiquitous presence in all fields of knowledge.
