Описание: America's greatest nature writer and a political thinker of international renown, Henry David Thoreau crafted essays that reflect his speculative and probing cast of mind. In his poems, he gave voice to his private sentiments and spiritual aspirations in the plain style of New England speech. The Library of America now brings together these indispensable works in one authoritative volume. Spanning his entire career, the twenty-seven essays gathered here chart the range of Thoreau's interests and the evolution of his thinking, particularly on nature and politics. They vary in style from the ambling rhythm of "Natural History of Massachusetts" and "A Winter Walk" to the concentrated moral outrage of "Slavery in Massachusetts" and "A Plea for Captain John Brown." Included are "Civil Disobedience," Thoreau's great exploration of the conflict between individual conscience and state power that continues to influence political thinkers and activists; "Walking," a meditation on "wildness" and civilization; and "Life Without Principle," a passionate critique of American materialism and conformity. Also here are literary essays, including pieces on Homer, Chaucer, and Carlyle; the travel essay "A Yankee in Canada"; speeches in defense of John Brown; and works on natural history written during the last years of Thoreau's life, such as "The Succession of Forest Trees," "Wild Apples," and "Huckleberries." Many of the poems are presented here in versions based on Thoreau's journal and manuscripts. Poems he excerpted for A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers and Walden appear in their entirety. Included are "Sic Vita," with Thoreau's searching characterization of himself as "a parcel of vain strivings," and the visionary "Inspiration."

Описание: <p>Henry David Thoreau, one of America’s most prominent environmental writers, supported himself as a land surveyor for much of his life, parcelling land that would be sold off to loggers. In the only study of its kind, Patrick Chura analyses this seeming contradiction to show how the best surveyor in Concord combined civil engineering with civil disobedience. </p> <p>Placing Thoreau's surveying in historical context, <em>Thoreau the Land Surveyor</em> explains the cultural and ideological implications of surveying work in the mid-nineteenth century. Chura explains the ways that Thoreau's environmentalist disposition and philosophical convictions asserted themselves even as he reduced the land to measurable terms and acted as an agent for bringing it under proprietary control. He also describes in detail Thoreau's 1846 survey of Walden Pond. By identifying the origins of <em>Walden</em> in--of all places--surveying data, Chura re-creates a previously lost supporting manuscript of this American classic. </p>

Описание: This study takes up Thoreau’s work as an early and prophetic diagnosis of the modern crisis of relationships between the individual and society. Thus Adorno’s formulation of «a melancholy of science» finds its predecessor in Thoreau’s famous dictum from the early pages of Walden that we live our lives in quiet desperation. The author reads Thoreau’s Journal as an attempt to refute tendencies towards the narrowing of life to being understood merely in techno-economic categories which threaten the quality of the development of both the individual and the community. Thus in literary scholarship it is essential to find strategies which will critically contribute to understanding and transforming what Auerbach called «ways of life» and what Barthes referred to as «living-together».
