Ruskin Bond Is Better Known As The Wordsworth Of Indian English Writing

Although Leopold’s love of great expanses of wilderness is readily apparent, his book does not cry out in defense of particular tracts of land about to go under the axe or plow, but rather deals with the minutiae, the details, of often unnoticed plants and animals, all the little things that, in our ignorance, we have left out of our managed acreages but which must be present to add up to balanced ecosystems and a sense of quality and wholeness in the landscape.

“Could it be that we are supposed to be talking to the plants and animals, interacting with them, accepting the gifts they offer, and using them in ways that further their growth?”(Starhawk, 162). I feel this quote from “Our Place in Nature” is a great way to start the topic of how artists uses plant life in their work. It shows how artists might try to interact with the environment for ideas on the works that they come up. I feel also that they are trying to be one with the environment. I feel if you spend enough time in nature, you will build a strong connection with everything around you. This comment is justified when Starhawk said, “I can walk into any forest where the trees are strange and understand something about the relationships

The relationship with man and nature is often influenced by the experiences that one encounters. Douglas Stewart in the snow gum uses descriptively visual techniques in order to portray his experiences, indulging all senses.. The use of imagery to describe the snow gum “ performing its slow miracle” creates a sense of spiritualiy and connection between him and nature that’s present. And in this short pace of time of the “slow miracle”, he is caught up in the experience and awareness of the tree. It is suggested that from his world, he had to slow down to stop and view the natural phenomenon. . The choice of the word “something”, reveals his amazement and questioning. He is suddenly aware of the wonders of nature, not just about the tree surviving in the harsh climate but the shadow and the perfection that exists in nature

The Forest Unseen shows how nature has a beauty on a much smaller scale than what is seen on the larger spectrum of life. Haskell studied a square meter in the forest for an entire year to examine the smallest of details to show how when the large scale is studied there are many things happening in the small scale. The Forest Unseen allows readers to see how much beauty there is beyond what meets the eye. He consistently supports his main themes throughout the book by citing specific examples. Haskell’s endeavor to discover the beauty of the environment is successful in that he uses scientific and poetic language to draw the reader into his study as he explains his day to day experiences in the forest.

Nature is not altered by humanity and instead is pure, creating inspiration for people to be original. Nature is “the greatest delight which the fields and woods minister, in the suggestion of an occult relation between man and the vegetable” (Nature 221). People who believe in transcendence see the importance

The audience of this this book is presumed to be the general person who is not fully intact with the ideas that he or she is disrupting the ecosystem and is not aware of the effects they are doing as a whole. The book argues that no ecosystem is completely inert as things such as climate changes or drought. Without human interaction an environment can still have issues, but the introduction of human life and economy does take a grave toll on the climate. These are irreversible effects that mankind are making to the ecosystem. The english impact has been such a dramatic change to the climate especially the author compares Theodore 's Diary and Williams Ideas of agriculture. The author even goes on to compare the native ecosystem to the nineteenth century colonization. The natives were much less intrusive on the environments as a whole. The evidence to this was the diaries of the travelers and the natives. He also strengthen his argument by using primary sources and reaching

This quote from the story “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” shows that the setting of the story is in India . In the movie, you can see that the family lives in India because of the terrain that surrounds the house and also by the looks of the garden. The family lives in a bungalow which is a one to one and a half story house that has a large front porch. In the movie, you can see the bungalow and how it looks. In both the book and the movie, the family has a large garden in which many animals live (movie). Especially, in the movie, you can see that the bungalow and the surrounding garden are all beautiful and that the family really loves living in such a beautiful place. In the book, the picture of the bungalow shows that it is a beautiful place to live in (Kipling 145). A difference between the setting in the book and the movie is that in the book it describes the garden, around the bungalow, as having flowers and a lot of beautiful trees and flowers. On the other hand, the movie shows that the garden has a lot of bamboo and not many flowers and not a lot of color.

Yusef Komunyakaa and William Wordsworth both describe nature in the most pure of human methods: through direct observation. However, there is a very different perspective in which these two poets are describing their experiences. Wordsworth exudes a sense of nostalgia describing nature as pure and utterly beautiful. Komunyakaa, on the other hand, is reminded of the horrors in nature, such as the pollution and deterioration of his environment. These horrors are particularly highlighted due to the damage that was done to the environment that has left a haunting effect on the people. For such contrasting experiences of nature, there seems to be an injustice in play here, which seems to contribute to these very contrasting differences on the environment. Within the framework of environmental justice, Wordsworth’s separation from harsh environments and Komunyakaa’s presence provide evidence to display the idea of

Muir discusses the power of nature; his description presenting his viewpoint of plant life (par. 4). Muir writes that plants like the Calypso evoke emotions in people. He believes his encounter with the Calypso was unforgettable, and more outstanding than his experiences with meeting people. John Muir gracefully writes in paragraph three about his

When the sun slowly peeps over the range of mountains, birds shake the morning dew off their feathers and give a cheerful song that would lift even the most sorrowful of spirits. A light fog wraps around the mountain range, reaching to touch every bit of life thriving there. The slight chill in the air is enough to give a gentle shiver, but not enough for the need of a jacket. A breeze tickles the trees, making their leaves shake and sway with laughter. Sunlight seeps in past the thick canopy of branches with hopes of being able to reach the damp mountain earth. The mountains are the best place to live to be relaxed, see the most beauty, and never get bored.

Nature often plays a heavy role in the world of fantasy literature. From the scenery of Narnia to the Forest Spirit in Princess Mononoke, there has always been something fascinating and fantastical about the majesty of nature. After all, the entire subgenre of eco-fantasy focuses on this exact concept. Even in our world, nature is seen as the epitome of goodness and purity, therefore it is reasonable that many fantasy stories, even those not traditionally categorized as eco-fantasy, connect their pure protagonists to symbols of nature. Many stories written by the Brothers Grimm demonstrate this, particularly the tale “Cinderella,” and J.R.R. Tolkien’s massive fantasy trilogy The Lord of The Rings

Poets use many ways when they want to communicate something using poems. Poems are used as a means of passing ideas, information and expression of feelings.
