Overview

In a world defined by specialization and fragmentation, Alice Major's Triangularity is a profound, timely challenge. Through personal essays and interspersed poems, Major reveals the deep connections between poetry, science, and spirit, proposing a new intellectual geometry. Science and spirit are the two sides of human inquiry--one seeking empirical mechanics, the other divine meaning. Poetry is an essential hypotenuse, the unifying language that connects them. Animated by cosmology, faith, and scientific curiosity, Major blurs disciplinary lines to pursue meaning over certainty. She asks how this interplay informs the very act of making art, and how we can achieve a truly holistic view of the natural world amid the climate crisis. Critically, the book acknowledges the profound wisdom of Indigenous knowledge, urging accountability from settler readers. Triangularity is an invaluable resource for all those yearning to reconnect with very human needs: peace, beauty, justice, equality, good community, a quiet soul, and personal truth. It's a friendly sharing of big ideas--a necessary guide to finding the spiritual in the stars and the poetry in physics.
