Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The book delves into the evolution of humanity's relationship with nature, exploring how this feeling has changed from antiquity through the Middle Ages to modern times, with a focus on various epochs and the literary expressions of those sentiments. The opening of the text establishes Biese's intentions and context for this exploration. He discusses the historical significance of nature in human life, noting how physical landscapes are reflected in cultural outputs and emotional responses. Biese sets the stage for a rigorous investigation into various civilizations' interactionswith nature, emphasizing the pivotal role of literature as awindow into a society's feelings toward the natural world. He also highlights the tension between the transcendental views of Christianity and the more intimate views rooted in earlier pagan traditions, suggesting that these themes will be examined further throughout the work.[Footnote 2: Grimm.

'In spring the Cydmian apple trees give blossom watered by river streams in the hallowed garden of the nymphs; in spring the buds grow and swellbeneath the leafy shadow of the vine branch. But my heart knoweth no season of respite; nay, like the Thracian blast that rageth with its lightning, so doth it bear down from Aphrodite's side, dark and fearless, with scorching frenzy in its train, and from its depths shaketh my heart with might.'] [Footnote 10: Comp. Biese, op. cit.] [Footnote 11: Deutsche Rundschau, 1879.] [Footnote 12: Comp. Biese, op. cit.] [Footnote 13: Chrysostom was not only utilitarian, but praised and enjoyed the world's beauty.
