Anwareiddiad oedd fy syniad cyntaf i. 

 

Mae naws ychydig yn gryfach nag 'uncivilisation' iddo, ella, oherwydd bod
'anwariaid' yn golygu 'savages'. Ond dyna'r unig air posibl yn Gymraeg. Dw
innau'n meddwl mai fel enw maen nhw'n defnyddio'r term.

O'n i'n cymryd eu bod nhw'n sôn am y broses - mae'r 'un' yn rhagddodiad
rhyfedd iawn i'w ddefnyddio o flaen enw tydi? Ond does wybod.

Neu ydyn nhw’n defnyddio ‘uncivilisation’ fel enw, mewn gwrthgyferbyniad â
‘civilisation’?

 

“..a civilisation is built on stories” 

“It is time for new stories … We call this
<http://www.dark-mountain.net/about-2/the-manifesto/> Uncivilisation.”

Dwi ddim yn meddwl bod eisiau poeni gormod bod ‘anwareiddiad’ yn rhy
negyddol – maen nhw wedi defnyddio gair gyda’r rhagddodiad ‘un-‘ sydd yr un
mor negyddol yn Saesneg.  A beth yw ystyr ‘uncivil’, ‘uncivilised’, wedi’r
cyfan?

Pnawn da! Cael trafferth efo'r gair yma - "Dark Mountain Project" ac yn
defnyddio'r gair yn y cyd-destun canlynol:

 

"These are precarious and unprecedented times. Our economies crumble, while
beyond the chaos of markets, the ecological foundations of our way of living
near collapse. Little that we have taken for granted is likely to come
through this century intact.

We don’t believe that anyone – not politicians, not economists, not
environmentalists, not writers – is really facing up to the scale of this.
As a society, we are all still hooked on a vision of the future as an
upgraded version of the present. Somehow, technology or political agreements
or ethical shopping or mass protest are meant to save our civilisation from
self-destruction.

Well, we don’t buy it. This project starts with our sense that civilisation
as we have known it is coming to an end; brought down by a rapidly changing
climate, a cancerous economic system and the ongoing mass destruction of the
non-human world. But it is driven by our belief that this age of collapse –
which is already beginning – could also offer a new start, if we are careful
in our choices.

The end of the world as we know it is not the end of the world full stop.

Deeper than oil, steel or bullets, a civilisation is built on stories: on
the myths that shape it and the tales told of its origins and destiny. We
have herded ourselves to the edge of a precipice with the stories we have
told ourselves about who we are: the stories of ‘progress’, of the conquest
of ‘nature’, of the centrality and supremacy of the human species.

It is time for new stories. The Dark Mountain Project intends to conjure
into being new ways of seeing and writing about the world. We call this
<http://www.dark-mountain.net/about-2/the-manifesto/> Uncivilisation.

Our aim is to bring together writers and artists, thinkers and doers, to
assault the established citadels of literature and thought, and to begin to
redraw the maps by which we navigate the places and times in which we find
ourselves."

 

Mae gwefan y prosiect yma:

Mae anwaraidd / anwareiddiwch ac ati yn swnio braidd yn rhy negyddol i mi,
am ryw reswm, gan fod y prosiect yn ceisio cychwyn rhywbeth newydd, ac eto
mae'r "un" yn uncivilisation yn awgrymu'r negyddol!

 

Byddai unrhyw ysbrydoliaeth yn help mawr!
