Nuova; or, The New Bee
Author: Vernon L. Kellogg
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 101
Book Description
In "Nuova; or, The New Bee" by Vernon L. Kellogg, the reader is immersed in a captivating story that combines elements of romanticism and science fiction. Set in a futuristic world where bees have disappeared and a new genetically modified bee species emerges, the book explores themes of environmentalism, technology, and the potential consequences of human intervention in nature. Kellogg's writing style is both descriptive and thought-provoking, as he skillfully weaves together scientific principles with a narrative that challenges the reader's perceptions of the natural world. The literary context of the book is rooted in the early 20th century, a time of great scientific advancements and growing concerns about the impact of human activity on the environment. Vernon L. Kellogg, a renowned entomologist and science writer, drew inspiration from his own research and observations of insect behavior to create "Nuova; or, The New Bee." His deep knowledge of entomology and passion for environmental conservation are evident throughout the book, as he uses fiction as a medium to raise awareness about the importance of bees in maintaining ecological balance. Kellogg's unique background lends credibility to the scientific elements of the story, adding depth and authenticity to the narrative. I highly recommend "Nuova; or, The New Bee" to readers who enjoy thought-provoking science fiction with a focus on environmental themes. Kellogg's blend of scientific accuracy and storytelling makes this book both educational and entertaining, offering a unique perspective on the relationship between humans and the natural world.

La Vita Nuova
Author: Dante Dante Alighieri
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674050932
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
La Vita Nuova (1292–94) has many aspects. Dante’s libello, or “little book,” is most obviously a book about love. In a sequence of thirty-one poems, the author recounts his love of Beatrice from his first sight of her (when he was nine and she eight), through unrequited love and chance encounters, to his profound grief sixteen years later at her sudden and unexpected death. Linked with Dante’s verse are commentaries on the individual poems—their form and meaning—as well as the events and feelings from which they originate. Through these commentaries the poet comes to see romantic love as the first step in a spiritual journey that leads to salvation and the capacity for divine love. He aims to reside with Beatrice among the stars. David Slavitt gives us a readable and appealing translation of one of the early, defining masterpieces of European literature, animating its verse and prose with a fluid, lively, and engaging idiom and rhythm. His translation makes this first major book of Dante’s stand out as a powerful work of art in its own regard, independent of its “junior” status to La Commedia. In an Introduction, Seth Lerer considers Dante as a poet of civic life. “Beatrice,” he reminds us, “lives as much on city streets and open congregations as she does in bedroom fantasies and dreams.”
