The article examinesThoreau's complex attitudes towards nature, which paved the way for later environmentally-aware literature in the United States. In confronting animals, plants, and landscapes, Thoreau's stance is both scientific and poetic, staging a two-way dialogue that refuses postures of domination and underlines an unerasable interconnectedness. This is what makes him an ancestor to contemporary ecological thinking.

Abstract
The article examinesThoreau's complex attitudes towards nature, which paved the way for later environmentally-aware literature in the United States. In confronting animals, plants, and landscapes, Thoreau's stance is both scientific and poetic, staging a two-way dialogue that refuses postures of domination and underlines an unerasable interconnectedness. This is what makes him an ancestor to contemporary ecological thinking.File in questo prodotto:
