TREATISE ON THE GROWTH AND MANAGEMENT OF THE CARNATION. ITS NAME AND DISTINCTIONS. Of all the flowers that adorn the garden, whether they charm the eye by their beauty, or regale the sense of smelling by their fragrance, the Carnation may be justly said to hold the first rank. Perdita. The fairest flowers o' the season Are our Carnations, and streaked Gillyflowers, Which some call Nature's bastards: of that kind Our rustic garden's barren; and I care not To get slips of them. Polixines. Wherefore, gentle maiden, Do you neglect them? Skakspeare's Winter's Tale, Act IK The stateliness of its growth, the brilliancy and diversity of its colours, and the sweetness of its per B fume, never fail to attract our regard and admiration. The Tulip, though styled the Queen of the Garden, cannot boast of more admirers: they may with propriety be considered the two master-pieces of nature; and, though rival beauties, may be said to share the sovereignty of the garden equally between them. Yet it must be admitted that the Carnation, independent of its fragrance, has this advantage over its rival, that it continues longer in bloom; and that when planted in pots, it can be removed to decorate the greenhouse, the conservatory, or the drawing-room. The Carnation as well as the Pink are said to have been introduced first into England from Italy, and have derived their names in the English language from their colour--Pink, Carnation, or flesh-colour. The Carnation was also, as well as the Clove, styled by the old English florists, Clove-Gilliflower, from its blooming in July. They both belong to the same class and genus, and are known to the ancient botanists under the name of Caryophyllum, or Walnut Leaf, Folium Nucis; but why, is uncertain. The Carnation...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solitude has always had an ambivalent status: the capacity to enjoy being alone can make sociability bearable, but those predisposed to solitude are often viewed with suspicion or pity. Drawing on a wide array of literary and historical sources, David Vincent explores how people have conducted themselves in the absence of company over the last three centuries. He argues that the ambivalent nature of solitude became a prominent concern in the modern era. For intellectuals in the romantic age, solitude gave respite to citizens living in ever more complex modern societies. But while the search for solitude was seen as a symptom of modern life, it was also viewed as a dangerous pathology: a perceived renunciation of the world, which could lead to psychological disorder and anti-social behaviour. Vincent explores the successive attempts of religious authorities and political institutions to manage solitude, taking readers from the monastery to the prisoner’s cell, and explains how western society’s increasing secularism, urbanization and prosperity led to the development of new solitary pastimes at the same time as it made traditional forms of solitary communion, with God and with a pristine nature, impossible. At the dawn of the digital age, solitude has taken on new meanings, as physical isolation and intense sociability have become possible as never before. With the advent of a so-called loneliness epidemic, a proper historical understanding of the natural human desire to disengage from the world is more important than ever. The first full-length account of its subject, A History of Solitude will appeal to a wide general readership.
