This we know. The Earth does not belong to man, man
belongs to the Earth. This we know. Man did not
‘weave’ the web of life, he merely a strand within it and
whatever he does the web, he does to himself.”—Chief
Joseph, 1854.

April has been designated National Poetry Month.
Learning, art and poetry (literature) was a big part of
the Renaissance movement in Europe during the 1300s
to 1500 C.E. The interest in learning was spurred on by
humanism. Dante’s poem, “The Divine Comedy” was a
social commentary and a model for Renaissance
writers.
