Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này

In "Fresh Fields," John Burroughs invites readers into a world enriched by nature's beauty and intricacies, encapsulating his keen observations and reflections on the American landscape. This collection of essays, written in Burroughs' signature lyrical prose, marries natural history with philosophical musings, offering a holistic view of the environment that invites deep contemplation. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century America, Burroughs' work exemplifies the transcendentalist movement while simultaneously advocating for a profound appreciation of the natural world, drawing parallels between human experience and the rhythms of nature. As a prominent naturalist and essayist, John Burroughs' lifelong fascination with the outdoors and commitment to environmentalism deeply influenced his writing. Raised in rural New York, Burroughs was well-acquainted with the transformative power of nature, which fueled his desire to articulate its splendor and fragility. His friendships with fellow naturalists, including Walt Whitman and Theodore Roosevelt, further augmented his perspective, allowing him to weave together personal experience and broader ecological concerns. "Fresh Fields" is essential reading for anyone interested in nature writing, ecology, or the transcendentalist tradition. Burroughs' poignant, immersive prose encourages readers to reconnect with the natural world and to reflect on humanity's role within it. This book stands as a timeless reminder of nature's elegance and our responsibility towards it.

Giới thiệu tác giả

John Burroughs (1837–1921) was an eminent American naturalist and essayist, instrumental in the development of the nature essay as a respected literary genre. With a deep reverence for the natural world and a style both clear and evocative, Burroughs's writing invites readers into intimate communion with the landscapes and wildlife he cherished. 'Fresh Fields', one of his many contributions to American literature, epitomizes this blend of precise observation and poetic appreciation. Burroughs's vast oeuvre extends beyond mere chronicling of nature; it delves into philosophical musings, advocating for the preservation of the wilderness and revealing the interconnectedness of life. A contemporary and friend of luminaries like Walt Whitman and Theodore Roosevelt, Burroughs played a seminal role in the conservation movement of his time, influencing public opinion with his accessible and passionate prose. Although not as widely known today as some of his counterparts, Burroughs's legacy endures through his extensive bibliography, which includes titles such as 'Wake-Robin' and 'Birds and Bees', and his continuing impact on environmental thought and nature writing.
