    Extractions: One of our Maine women has just died, and "gone into the world of light " about whom I cannot resist saying a few words, her quiet life seems to me to hold so many good lessons for all the rest of us. I do not know how to tell the tale of the good deeds she wrought. I am not one of the early friends who followed her footsteps most closely, and I have no right to make this in any sense a biographical sketch of her life, except that I do know the lovely qualities of her mind and heart and how eagerly she kept her eyes fixed upon the best things. I do know how well she stood in her lot and place and "made the most," as we say, sometimes, of her advantages. Young people are apt to be wishing for wider opportunities and imagining that it is our surroundings that give us value, as if a tallow candle were any the better light in a golden candlestick ! We cannot be so remote that our minds may not keep in touch with other minds to receive their help and inspiration. We can always learn to know and understand the world about us, we can follow to the skies any highway or byway of our native town. It is in the development of the will, and the gathering of great purposes, that one may make the most and the best of life. To love and look up to some friend who is wiser than we, to help and lead the friend who looks up to us; this joy may be ours, no matter how solitary, how apparently unnourished, how hard-worked and unpromising the daily life may seem in its beginning.

    Extractions: No matter: It's restful recreation for dreamers and thinkers alike! The bits and pieces found here do little more than touch lightly upon what each of the authors had to say about Burroughs. There is nothing complete. There is only a little of this and that, just enough, perhaps, to turn one to the books on the shelves and to the pages within where the extended thoughts are to be found. HOME SOURCES VOLUME CONTENTS ... CHRONOLOGY The Burroughs farm in Roxbury, NY was 320 acres in size. Sharp BLJB 9 Dallas Lore Sharp asks an innocent question in a way that should catch the eyes of any chronologist. "If the modern doctrine of few children (at most two) had been the religion of family life then, as it seems to be now (1927-'28), and Chauncey and Amy Burroughs had stopped with Hiram and Eden and Curtis and Wilson and Jane and Olly Ann, - then where would have been Wake-Robin and Signs and Seasons and Locusts and Wild Honey and Winter Sunshine and those other twenty volumes more?" It seems Sharp had an answer something like "Yeah, those books would never have been," but in the chronologist's mind, he would have answered his own question incorrectly. He should have known better, and he did know better. He makes it clear three pages later. But then, why should the chronologist be so picky?

    Extractions: By Patricia Olson-Elbanbuena / MindaNews / 30 May 2002 DAVAO CITY Environmentalism is a body of knowledge whose objectives, according to Dyer (1999), relate to the maintenance and enhancement of planetary and ecological stability. It works at the improvement of human life and at the same time, it aims at the conservation of resources and the solution of environmental problems. Tracing the roots of environmentalism from history may remind us of the importance of nature which is an idea as old as man. Reverence for the natural elements since the time of the pagans points at the immeasurable value planet earth has. The worth of nature was deeply-seated in the heart of the primitive man as he used to wander from land to land looking for food. In the time of the hunter-gatherer, love for nature was reflected in the way an individual adapted to his surroundings, even though it might have happened that there were occasions of razing a forest down just to catch a wildpig or a deer for food.

    Extractions: Queen Victoria reigned from 1837 to 1901. During this period, the study of natural science was enormously appealing to the middle classes. In the nineteenth century, museums, botanical gardens, and other scientific exhibitions educated and entertained the general public and introduced them to the discoveries of science. Among the sciences, entomology proved an especially popular hobby. At the beginning of the John Curtis, 1791-1862. Fellow of the Linnean Society.

The proposed boundary runs from Lower Stoneham Farm, across to the Parish Council Allotments, along the B2192 to Paygate Corner (New Road), through to the south of Gote Farm, along to Mill Farm and south along Moor Lane. That is, generally, following the boundary of the current Ringmer Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The majority of Ringmer Parish is thus outside the proposed South Downs National Park. There are numerous factors in Ringmer's landscape quality, history, cultural heritage and recreational potential, which it is submitted would justify an

    http://www.orgs.muohio.edu/anthologies/bernbaum.htm
    
    Extractions: New York: Ronald Press, 1948. These selections from the voluminous literature of the English Romantic Period (c. 1783-1832) were not chosen merely for historical reasons, or because they were popular in their own time (some were so, others were then almost unknown). This is not an herbarium, nor a museum of fossils; it is not a collection of flora or fauna, once alive, but now dead. It is an anthology in the true sense of the word,namely a gathering together of the choicest living flowers, the still unfaded efflorescence of the vast and fecund literature of English Romanticism. I have tried to reject any passage that is trash, though it may have been often included in previous books of selections, or though it may still have some curious antiquarian interest. Even in the brief section drawn from the Pre-Romantic Movement, the main purpose of which is historical, I have admitted very few specimens (fewer than in previous editions) that are of historical interest only.

    http://www3.mistral.co.uk/kstarnes/ringmer1.htm
    
    Extractions: A typical Sussex village surrounded by farmland and with the South Downs as a backdrop. It has a village green upon which, in the summer, cricket and stoolball are played and where children play on the swings and slides. There are also some good shops to be found too - Middleton's stock knitting wools and patterns of all sorts and are well known for their variety and choice. Help and advice is also given. They also stock Britains models, stationery, birthday cards etc . Lew Howard's prize-winning gourmet sausages can be found here too - give them a try ! The village was originally known as RINGMERE or Hring Mere (Old English meaning a ring of pools) and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. Four famous people associated with the village were John Harvard (who founded Harvard University) who married Miss Ann Sadler in 1636, Willliam Penn (who founded Pennsylvania) who married Miss Gulielma Springett in 1672 and (non-human) Timothy the Tortoise owned by a Mr Gilbert White 1720-1793) Some of the houses in Ringmer are old dating back to the 17th Century and can be seen from the main road if you look carefully. Plashett Park and Ringmer Park were, until the late 1500s, deer parks belonging to the Archbishop of Canterbury.

    Extractions: Lecture 1: The Romance of Nature during the Age of Industrialisation This new mentality was in part a reaction to the scientific revolution of the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Newtonian physics saw nature as a giant machine, which God had set in motion and which continued running in fixed ways. Newton argued that God had formed matter in solid, impenetrable particles, which moved in a mechanical way. Plants and animals were seen to be no more than machines, without any sensibility. There was a belief that this `machine' could be understood through careful measurement and classification of the parts. This involved breaking wholes into their constituent parts. A reductionist approach. Led to a concentration on analysis of the individual parts of a system rather than the organic whole. In natural science this was seen very strongly in Carl von Linne - popularly known as Linneaus (1717-1778), who devised a system of plant classification. Linneans investigated nature and new worlds to discover plants and animals which could be exploited. The Scotsman Adam Smith - who wrote The Wealth of Nations in 1776 - followed in this vein - seeing nature as a storehouse of raw materials to be exploited for the good of humans, using human ingenuity. He argued that the pursuit of self interest by humans created wealth, and this benefited human society as a whole. The philosopher of the emerging capitalist and industrial society in Britain.
