Book excerpt: Illustrations were created specifically for this edition in 2019 by Lysa Kaliostra. Walden by Henry David Thoreau "Walden, or Life in the Forest" is a widely-known book by American poet and thinker Henry David Thoreau. First published in 1854. This book is literary a record of a kind of social experiment, for which the author spent over two years. On his own. Thoreau decided to isolate himself from society for some time, focusing only on himself and his needs, imbued with the ideas of the liberal philosopher and the Unitarian pastor Ralph Waldo Emerson. He settled in Massachusetts, in his own self-built hut on the banks of the Walden Pond. He got everything he needed to live on his own, spending most of his time gardening, fishing, reading classic literature, swimming and rowing. However, he did not avoid human intercourse, often meeting and talking both with random travelers, and with the owner of the pond - Emerson himself. With his experiment, Thoreau sought to make it clear to the modern society with its cult of material things that it is possible to live well and happily outside of society, satisfying all natural needs with your own work. He contrasted the industrial revolution and the emerging consumer society with freedom from material wealth, privacy, self-sufficiency and closeness to nature. In fact, the Thoreau's book in addition to its undoubtedly amazing literary qualities is also a kind of propaganda of anti-capitalist and romantic-utopian ideas of the XIX century. By the way, it is appropriate to note that the ideas of maximum separation from modern society, in order to be left alone with yourself and with nature, are also quite popular in the 21st century ...

Download or read book Walden written by Henry David Thoreau and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-02-19 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American author, naturalist, and abolitionist, Henry David Thoreau was a principal figure of the 19th century movement of Transcendentalism. Central to the philosophy is a belief that people, who are inherently good, are corrupted by the organized institutions of society and that consequently the best community is one that is built upon on independence and self-reliance. In Thoreau's best known work, ?Walden? we find a classic account of his attempt to live by the principles espoused in this philosophy. Henry David Thoreau spent two years living at Walden Pond near Concord, Massachusetts, on a woodland property owned by fellow transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson. The story is detailed in its accounts of Thoreau's day-to-day activities, observations, and undertakings to survive out in the wilderness. Thoreau's journal is an exquisite account of a man seeking a more simple life by living in harmony with nature. A journey of self-discovery, ?Walden? is Thoreau's declaration of independence, a manual of self-reliance, for which the author will be forever immortalized. This edition includes a biographical afterword.

Book Walden Henry David Thoreau Illustrated

Download or read book Walden Henry David Thoreau Illustrated written by Henry David Thoreau and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1845, Thoreau moved to a cabin that he built with his own hands along the shores of Walden Pond in Massachusetts. Shedding the trivial ties that he felt bound much of humanity, Thoreau reaped from the land both physically and mentally, and pursued truth in the quiet of nature. In Walden, he explains how separating oneself from the world of men can truly awaken the sleeping self. Thoreau holds fast to the notion that you have not truly existed until you adopt such a lifestyle-and only then can you reenter society, as an enlightened being. These simple but profound musings-as well as "Civil Disobedience," his protest against the government's interference with civil liberty-have inspired many to embrace his philosophy of individualism and love of nature

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring nearly 100 luminous watercolor illustrations, Thoreau and the Art of Life collects eloquent passages from the writings of the seminal author and philosopher. Drawn mainly from his journals, the short excerpts provide fascinating insight into his thought processes by presenting his raw, unedited feelings about the things that meant the most to him. The book reflects Thoreau’s deep beliefs and ideas about nature, relationships, creativity, spirituality, aging, simplicity, and wisdom. By eloquently expressing his thoughts about life and what gives it value, he leads the reader to a closer examination of life. Thoreau’s work asks us to live our own truths with joy and discipline and to recognize that we live in a universe of extraordinary beauty, mystery, and wonder. An avid reader of Thoreau, editor and illustrator Roderick MacIver organized the passages by themes: love and friendship; art, creativity, and writing; aging, disease, and death; human society and culture; nature and the human connection to the natural world; and wisdom, truth, solitude, and simplicity. The book includes a chronology and brief biography. Thoreau’s words of wisdom combined with MacIver’s vivid illustrations of the American landscape will resonate with nature enthusiasts and a broad range of readers interested in art, environmentalism, literature, and philosophy. “It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful, but it is more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts. Every man is tasked to make his life, even in its details, worthy of the contemplation of his most elevated and critical hour.” —Henry David Thoreau
