The Pageant of Summer

Richard Jefferies

Beschreibung

In "The Pageant of Summer," Richard Jefferies masterfully intertwines natural observation with reflective prose, creating a vivid tapestry that celebrates the lush beauty of the English countryside. The book adopts an impressionistic style, blending poetic descriptions with philosophical musings. Jefferies captures the essence of rural life during the height of summer, invoking not only the serene landscapes but also the intricate relationships between humanity and nature. This work is contextualized within the Victorian era's growing interest in natural philosophy and the Romantic movement's emphasis on the sublime, making it a pivotal exploration of ecological awareness during a period of industrial transformation. Richard Jefferies, an influential English author and naturalist, was deeply connected to the landscapes of his native Wiltshire. His upbringing in a rural environment instilled in him a profound appreciation for nature, which is vividly reflected in his writing. Jefferies's struggles with health and the pressures of urbanization further fueled his desire to depict the beauty of the natural world, offering a poignant escape for himself and his readers from the rapidly changing society of the time. For readers seeking a poetic exploration of the natural world and a meditation on the passage of time, "The Pageant of Summer" is an essential read. Jefferies's evocative prose invites readers to pause and reflect on the beauty around them, making it a timeless classic for both nature lovers and literary enthusiasts alike.

Planetary Systems - A Very Short...

Raymond T. Pierrehumbert

Not long ago, the Solar System was the only example of a planetary system—a star and the bodies orbiting it—that we knew. Now, we know thousands of planetary systems, and have even been able to observe planetary systems at the moment of their birth. 
 
 
 
This Very Short Introduction explores this new frontier, incorporating the latest research. The book takes the listener on a journey through the grand sweep of time, from the moment galaxies begin to form after the Big Bang to trillions of years in the future when the Universe will be a dilute soup of dim galaxies populated mostly by red dwarf stars. Throughout, Raymond T. Pierrehumbert introduces the latest insights gained from a new generation of telescopes that catch planetary systems at the moment of formation, and to the theoretical advances that attempt to make sense of these observations. He explains how the elements that make up life and the planets on which life can live are forged in the interiors of dying stars, and make their way into rocky planets. He also explores the vast array of newly discovered planets orbiting stars other than our own, and explains the factors that determine their climates. Finally, he reveals what determines how long planetary systems can live, and what happens in their end-times.
