Sara's point about Thomas Jefferson and bioregionalism is really
interesting and quite a new connection (I think). There is with
Jefferson a quite definable sense of place, first in relation to
Virginia itself and more particularly the area around Monticello,
allof which one finds in contemporary bioregionalist writing. It's
esp. valuable to link up these 'new' ideas with some history or
historical perspective. This has made me want to lookat Jefferson
again.
