Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ... PREFACE Next to Aisop, Reynard the Fox is the best known of the tales in which animals play the chief part. It is natural, therefore, that a Cranford Aisop should be followed by a Cranford Reynard; and in the present volume I have endeavoured to do for Reynard what I attempted to do for Aisop in its predecessor-- provide a text which children could read with ease and pleasure, and at the same time give their parents, their cousins, and their aunts a short resume' of the results which the latest research in folklore and literary history has arrived at with regard to the origin of the book. With regard to the text, I found that ready-made to my hand. The late Sir Henry Cole, of South Kensington fame, in his earlier days made an attempt to reform children's books, and may be regarded as the precursor of their improved position to-day. Under the name of " Felix Summerley" he produced a number of children's books, well printed, well written, and tolerably illustrated, which some of us remember as the chief treasures of our youth. Among these was a version of Reynard--mostly adapted from Caxton's-- which I found, with some slight alteration, could easily be adapted for my present purpose, and, in the main, the text of the present book is a resuscitation of " Felix Summerley's" version. As regards Introduction and Notes, I have attempted to give the adult reader a condensed account of the latest results about the origin of this interesting and characteristic product of the Middle Ages. Much has been done during the present century to clear up the many obscurities attaching to Reynard the Fox, which shares with AZsop the distinction of being a piece of folklore raised into literature. I have tried to summarise the results reached by suc

Download or read book Of Wolves and Men written by Barry Lopez and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1978, this classic exploration of humanity’s complex relationship with and understanding of wolves returns with a new afterword by the author. Humankind's relationship with the wolf is the sum of a spectrum of responses ranging from fear to admiration and affection. Lopez’s classic, careful study has won praise from a wide range of reviewers and improved the way books on wild animals are written. Of Wolves and Men explores the uneasy interaction between wolves and civilization over the centuries, and the wolf's prominence in our thoughts about wild creatures. Drawing upon an impressive array of literature, history, science, and mythology as well as extensive personal experience with captive and free-ranging wolves, Lopez argues for the wolf's preservation and immerses the reader in its sensory world, creating a compelling portrait of the wolf both as a real animal and as imagined by different kinds of men. A scientist might perceive the wolf as defined by research data, while an Eskimo hunter sees a family provider much like himself. For many Native Americans the wolf is also a spiritual symbol, a respected animal that can strengthen the individual and the community. With irresistible charm and elegance, Of Wolves and Men celebrates careful scientific fieldwork, dispels folklore that has enabled the Western mind to demonize wolves, explains myths, and honors indigenous traditions, allowing us to understand how this remarkable animal has become so prominent for so long in the human heart.
