Emerson's Life in Science
ISBN: 9780801440441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Ralph Waldo Emerson has traditionally been cast as a dreamer and a mystic, concerned with the ideals of transcendentalism rather than the realities of contemporary science and technology. In Laura Dassow Walls's view Emerson was a leader of the secular avant-garde in his day. He helped to establish science as the popular norm of truth in America and to modernize American popular thought. In addition, he became a hero to a post-Darwinian generation of Victorian Dissenters, exemplifying the strong connection between transcendentalism and later nineteenth-century science.In his early years as a...

Henry David Thoreau: A Life
ISBN: 9780226344690 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 640 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "Walden. Yesterday I came here to live."

His attempt to "live deliberately" in a small woods at the edge of his hometown of Concord has been a touchstone for individualists and seekers since the publication of Walden in 1854.

Views of Nature
ISBN: 9780226923185 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 313 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. While the influence of Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) looms large over the natural sciences, his legacy reaches far beyond the field notebooks of naturalists. Humboldt's 1799-1804 research expedition to Central and South America with botanist Aime Bonpland not only set the course for the great scientific surveys of the nineteenth century, but also served as the raw material for his many volumes--works of both scientific rigor and aesthetic beauty that inspired such essayists and artists as Emerson, Goethe, Thoreau, Poe, and Frederic Edwin Church. Views of Nature, or...
