In this remarkable book, Henry Martin invites us to study in close detail van Gogh’s painting The Good Samaritan , and the famous parable told by Jesus of Nazareth. He asks what lessons we can learn from meditation upon the imagery and each of the characters portrayed. Questions for discussion and reflection on each chapter help us to relate the themes and challenges of the parable to our lives and the world we live in today. The book is also an engaging, personal study of van Gogh, the tragic genius of his life, and the struggles he faced which may have informed both his process and his spirituality. Martin has translated many of van Gogh’s letters, and, as an artist himself, brings a unique perspective to our understanding of both the painter and the parable.
Kann ich das Lied dieser Berge schreiben? Ein Lied müsste das sein, in dem die schwarzgrünen Drachenbäume ihren Schatten werfen, die blutigen Rücken der Pferde, auf denen sich Fliegen niederlassen, die Reiter, die Kinder, kaum drei Jahre alt, unter anderen Kindern zu sehen sind, die Mädchen, die sich anbieten für ein paar Abzeichen. Die tote Hyäne am Straßenrand, der flüchtende Kojote, Frauen und Männer, die viertausend Meter hohen Gipfel, die Vögel müssten Platz finden darin. Und wir natürlich, die hier arbeiten, bis das letzte Korn vom Halm geholt ist. Nichts darf gewollt sein, nichts herbeigeholt, eine vorgefasste Absicht zu befriedigen. Das ist das Schwerste, wirklich offen sein, sich frei machen von allen fremden und auch den eigenen Erwartungen. Ohne Ballast aufsteigen zu den Wörtern, aus denen das Fassbare entsteht, was zwischen mir und den Dingen in Schwingung gerät.
