Sinossi

In "More Beetles," Jean-Henri Fabre continues his profound exploration of the natural world, delving into the intricate lives of various beetle species with an observational precision that exemplifies his dedication to entomology. Fabre'Äôs literary style combines a scientific rigor with poetic prose, immersing readers in the fascinating behaviors and habitats of these often-overlooked creatures. This work serves as a sequel to his earlier studies, further situating it within the broader literary context of natural history writing in the late 19th century, where meticulous detail and vivid imagery were crucial in conveying the marvels of nature to a burgeoning audience of naturalists and lay readers alike. Jean-Henri Fabre, a pioneering French entomologist, was driven by a lifelong curiosity about insects and their ecological roles. His commitment to observing and documenting the behaviors of beetles stemmed from both his scientific background and a deep, intrinsic appreciation for the minutiae of life. Known for his innovative methods of entomological research, Fabre's work was informed by an urgency to share the wonder he found in nature, making complex scientific insights accessible to the general public. "More Beetles" is a captivating invitation for both nature enthusiasts and casual readers alike to appreciate the intricate lives of beetles, enriching their understanding of biodiversity. Fabre'Äôs eloquent narrative not only enlightens but also inspires a sense of wonder about the natural world, making this book a must-read for anyone intrigued by the interplay between science and art in literature.

    'Eli linge libaluleke kakhulu kumzi ontsundu olahlekileyo. Xa sivuselela izinto zenkcubeko yethu esalahlekana nazo ngonoquku, mhla kwafika iintlanga zasemzini.' – Dr Loyiso Nqevu
    Returning to the family homestead in the Eastern Cape for the holidays, and worried that your city ways and less than perfect knowledge of Xhosa culture will get you a wagging finger in the face from ooMalume – the uncles?
    No need to fret. Don't Upset ooMalume! captures the essence of Xhosa heritage and culture, and explores different aspects of village life. It covers a range of topics, from major Xhosa life ceremonies and traditional clothing, to the significance of uronta (the rondavel) and ubuhlanti (the kraal). Not forgetting the importance of traditional food, the author describes popular dishes, edible forage and even medicinal plants.
    This book was born from writer and agriculturalist Hombakazki Mercy Nqandeka's concern that aspects of Xhosa heritage will be lost to future generations. By interweaving her guide to Xhosa culture with stories from her daily life at Mqele and Bulungula villages, and lessons taught to her by her mother and her late grandmothers, she hopes to help reconnect Xhosa people to their roots.
    Akukho nto imnandi ngathi kukungeqiwa ziindaba xa kuncokolwa ngesiXhosa esintsokothileyo nesineziqhulo. Bathi bezincokolela abantu abadala bexuba nakwintetho yokuhlonipha ube usiva yonke into abayithethayo. Oko kubonisa ukuzingca nokuzingomba isifuba ngolwimi lakho lesiXhosa.
    Le ncwadi yenzelwe abantu abasithandayo isiXhosa nabafuna ukufunda nzulu ngolwimi nenkcubeko yesiXhosa. Ungabadanisi ooMalume, lola isiXhosa sakho ngale ncwadi.
