The Complete Angler 1653

Izaak Walton

Sinopse

In 1653, Izaak Walton published "The Complete Angler," a seminal work that artfully melds literary prose with practical fishing techniques, reflecting the pastoral ideal of 17th-century England. This iconic book serves as both a manual for anglers and a meditation on nature, exploring themes such as companionship, spirituality, and the joy found in rural pursuits. Walton's style is characterized by its conversational tone, vivid imagery, and philosophical musings, providing insights into the tranquil life of fishing while advocating for a greater appreciation of nature, positioning the work within the burgeoning genre of nature writing that would influence generations of both anglers and writers alike. Izaak Walton, an avid angler and a local London tradesman, drew upon his personal experiences and extensive knowledge of fishing to craft this enduring text. His life, marked by a passionate engagement with the natural world alongside political and religious upheaval, informed his vision of fishing as not merely a pastime, but a means to connect with beauty and serenity. Walton's extensive correspondence with literary figures of his time also instantiated a rich intellectual backdrop, further enhancing the book's depth and resonance. "The Complete Angler" remains an essential read for anyone who finds solace in nature or seeks to understand the deeper rhythms of life. Walton's blend of practical advice and contemplative reflections invites readers to embark on their own journey of exploration, whether by stream or within themselves. This timeless masterpiece is particularly recommended for outdoor enthusiasts, literary scholars, and anyone yearning for a deeper connection to the natural world.

Natures Silken Robes - Bombyx...

Mike Blake

Natures Silken Robes :: Bombyx mandarina 
This poem was inspired by a program I saw on silkworms and their germination and metamorphosis into the adult moths (which they generally never get to because of the demand for their silk). 
Domesticated silk moths don't survive the silk process of obtaining their silk. The death of the silk moth is not described in this Poem. The silk worm trade has been going for over 5,000 years and cultivated mainly in Asia. 
The name the 'Silk Road' came about because of this highly lucrative trade. 
The domesticated silk worms are called Bombyx mori, 
and their Wild cousins are called Bombyx mandarina.
