Nature

American literature has depended upon nature since its very beginning. In this paper, the writer will give detailed explanations on how “Nature” by Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Walden” by Henry David Thoreau, and Fitful Flame” by Walt Whitman, all take roles as a part of American literature.

Mark Fiege, the author of The Republic of Nature, was able to capture the past history through the lens of nature. Nature by definition is something so simple but so broad. We as the readers must analyze the history and the effects of nature of the United States, but we must first understand what Mark Fiege was able to see through the lens of nature, how he was able to define nature.

literature is the relationship between Nature versus Man. These two forces distinguish how one factor impacts another over the course of a character’s journey. In the poem, “The Epic of Gilgamesh,” translated by Andrew George, the protagonist, Gilgamesh goes on this physical and mental journey as he encounters nature through the god's creation, known as Enkidu.
